Good job.

I just started rowing 12,000 meters a day (5 days now) and my blood pressure has dropped from 145/95 to 120/66.

Actually a little scary. Thought I would check with my doctor.

My BP did the same thing. It’s in the 109/58 range.

Two years ago I almost died when it went to over 230, liver and kidneys failed, and picked up a nasty staph infection that was causing me to hemorrhage internally. The MD’s told me I wasn’t going to last that night but I’ve had the last laugh so far.

Then rehab. They said I only had a 50/50 chance of living until July of last year. Started a physical exercise program that include Bowflexing, walking 31/2 miles a day, and the Concept2. Can’t say enough for rowing machine.
