Blood pressure OK: A single BP of 134/69 is not of concern if you took the reading when in pain or feeling stressed. At 25yo, repeated BP at rest should have a higher number less than 125. Headaches after exercise can occur for a number of reasons, including muscle strain, tension headaches, and migraines. Other more serious causes are extremely rare. If the headache persists or recurs frequently, see your doctor.
