In todays lessons we recorded our resting blood pressure rate on an automatic blood pressure monitor. One by one we went around the classroom and recorded each other's blood pressure, we wrote down the result on a piece of paper.
Afterwards we went around the class again each doing an excersice, then recorded our heart rate after excersice. My resting blood pressure rate was 122 over 60 and my blood pressure rate afterwards was 104 over 58.
(The reason why the blood pressure increases after excersice is because more blood is pumped around the vessels which is putting more pressure on to the veins.)
