What kind of exercise is healthy for high blood pressure?

Patient's question:

Doctor, my grandmother is 72 years old this year. She often feels dizzy. When she had a thorough physical examination, she found that she had high blood pressure and is currently taking medication for treatment. However, she is quite overweight and wants to engage in physical activities. I would like to ask what kind of activities are good for high blood pressure?

Doctor's answer:

According to your current condition, it may be due to insufficient blood supply to the brain, which has caused the recurrence of dizziness symptoms. This is often directly related to atherosclerosis of the cerebral arteries and is closely linked to high blood pressure and hyperlipidemia. It is recommended that you consider moderate exercise and actively reduce your weight. You can also try aerobic exercises such as running, ice skating, etc.
