Blood Pressure - Changes With Medication And Exercise Posted: 12-16-06 20:56pm


I was on a beta-blocker to control my blood pressure and noticed that my heart-rate during the curves workout circuit would get up to 96 - 112 beats per minute. My medication was changed to an ace inhibitor. My heart-rate during exercise has gone up to 132-140 beats per minute. Does anyone have any hunches as to whether I will I burn more calories now that my heart rate is faster during exercise?

I'm not sure if you will burn more calories or not. It is possible that you are getting more benefits of the cardio workout since your heartrate is a little higher.
