Does dynamic physical training reduce blood pressure in otherwise healthy normotensive and hypertensive subjects?
Dynamic physical training significantly reduces blood pressure by an average of 3.4/2.4 mm Hg, with the magnitude of reduction not strongly dependent on exercise intensity, frequency, or duration.
Robert Fagard (2001) studied this question.
