There is no such set number as everyones body responds differently.: Hello, There is no such set number as everyones body responds differently. The general thought is that consistent systolic bp(top number) >170-80 and diastolic bp(bottom number) >90 increases your cardiovascular risks. Goal bps depend on a number of things such as age, if diabetic, other co-morbid conditions.
