Can people with high blood pressure do push-ups?

Patient's question:

I have been at the gym these past few days, trying out various activities. Can people with high blood pressure do sit-ups?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, for high blood pressure, as long as the blood pressure is not too high, doing some sit-ups appropriately will not have too much impact. Secondly, it is essential to use medication to reduce blood pressure in a timely manner, which is relatively better. Additionally, dietary habits should be paid attention to for the heart, avoiding consuming excessively greasy and salty foods, as these can also lead to high blood pressure.
