Abstract
Controversy persists over the effects of aerobic exercise on persons with essential hypertension, but most evidence indicates that exercise is beneficial. The higher the blood pressure and less active the patient, the greater the likelihood of blood pressure reduction with exercise. For sedentary patients, moderate activity is usually more beneficial than a strenuous exercise regimen. Exercise usually can be tried before medication, unless the hypertension is severe.
