Isometric Exercises: The Best Way to Lower Blood Pressure, According to Researchers

According to researchers at Canterbury Christ Church University, the two best exercises to lower blood pressure are isometric exercises. Isometric exercises consist of postures that keep the body static and activate the muscles without lengthening or contracting them, as in strength training, for example. Among the most popular isometric exercises are wall squats and planks. The results showed that isometric exercise lowered blood pressure as much as conventional blood pressure medication.
