A member asked:
Why does our diastolic pressure decrease with exercise?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Blood pressure: the peripheral vasculature dilates with exercise this facilitates runoff from the arterial system during both phases and decreases the pressure in diastole

How high should your blood pressure raise after exercise-in terms of systolic and diastolic values? e.g is 127/74 before and 150/101 a normal increase after walking up and down a 16 inch step?
For what reasons might systolic blood pressure increase with exercise but diastolic doesn't?
