42 yo, 5’9” male. 220lbs. On BP meds amplodipine, 5mg after checkup. Was 160/110 . Doc told me to lose 20 lbs and exercise 10-20 mins three times a day.
It's crazy. I do that, and more. Who knows...Time to find a new doctor, and get on the generic crestor, or whatever they are giving out free at the supermarket with prescription...
45 yo male. 260lbs. 5’10”.
I deadlift in the 500’s, bench in the 400’s, and I workout four days a week for an hour a session.
Could stand to lose twenty pounds. But I’d look even more,like monster if I did. Doc said most people don’t bother. Has me on Lisinop/HCTZ.
Went from 165/107 to 116/85.
Dad had similar issues minus the weightlifting hobby...
