Stay tuned for Body and Spirit.
00:00:15.66\00:00:17.04
Well, today we gonna talk about
00:00:17.05\00:00:18.44
the silent killer, hypertension.
00:00:18.45\00:00:20.25
Hello, I'm Dick
Nunez, Wellness Director
00:00:49.71\00:00:51.54
of the Black Hill's
Health & Education Center.
00:00:51.55\00:00:53.77
Welcome to Body and Spirit.
00:00:53.78\00:00:55.85
Today we're
gonna be talking about
00:00:55.86\00:00:56.88
the silent killer, hypertension.
00:00:56.89\00:00:59.18
When we look at hypertension
people don't realize
00:00:59.19\00:01:01.39
they have it, but yet
there are great risk factors
00:01:01.40\00:01:03.30
involved with those who do.
00:01:03.31\00:01:05.32
Fortunately, there is
a lot we can do about it.
00:01:05.33\00:01:07.52
If people go on a
regular exercise program
00:01:07.53\00:01:10.19
and make some practical
modifications of their diet,
00:01:10.20\00:01:13.18
just by doing those things
alone many people have become
00:01:13.19\00:01:16.05
medication free and now
have normal blood pressures.
00:01:16.06\00:01:19.33
The Bible tells in Psalms
103:3, that God is anxious
00:01:19.34\00:01:23.41
to forgive our iniquities
and to heal all our diseases.
00:01:23.42\00:01:26.83
So if we claim those
promises and step forward
00:01:26.84\00:01:29.39
into an exercise program,
we can expect great things.
00:01:29.40\00:01:32.76
So let's get started. Today
helping me out will be Mike.
00:01:32.77\00:01:36.13
Mike and I are somewhat
in the same age bracket,
00:01:45.67\00:01:48.19
so and we're in that
baby boomer generation
00:01:48.20\00:01:50.72
and, and in our age group people
tend to get hypertension a lot.
00:01:50.73\00:01:54.70
So both of us feel it's
good that we do regular exercise
00:01:54.71\00:01:58.42
and also will
help others as well.
00:01:58.43\00:02:00.15
So we're gonna start Mike
by just warming up little bit.
00:02:00.16\00:02:02.28
We're just gonna make
some arm circles here.
00:02:02.29\00:02:04.23
We gonna loosen the body up.
00:02:05.85\00:02:07.26
Whenever we deal
with hypertension,
00:02:08.93\00:02:11.82
we find it very helpful
to keep regular movement
00:02:11.83\00:02:17.26
going without a lot of exertion.
00:02:17.27\00:02:20.50
We'll explain more as we go
here but let's reverse this now
00:02:20.51\00:02:24.20
because if you exert a
lot you're going to have
00:02:24.21\00:02:27.88
a potential for
raising your blood pressure.
00:02:27.89\00:02:29.50
In fact, anytime we do
exercise the upper aspect
00:02:29.51\00:02:33.69
of the blood pressure
which is the systolic pressure
00:02:33.70\00:02:36.28
actually will rise
temporarily as we go through it
00:02:36.29\00:02:40.03
with the dilation of
the veins and arteries
00:02:40.04\00:02:42.17
as we go through exercise
we can lower the pressure.
00:02:42.18\00:02:45.02
Okay. We gonna relax now.
00:02:45.03\00:02:47.45
Now what we gonna do is
we gonna do some exercises
00:02:47.46\00:02:49.96
that are going to
work on the all the muscles
00:02:49.97\00:02:52.11
but yet we're not gonna
be doing a lot of straining
00:02:52.12\00:02:55.92
which is something you
won't wish doing it anyway
00:02:55.93\00:02:57.84
so we should be just fine.
00:02:57.85\00:03:00.24
We gonna start up by
just having the arms up here
00:03:00.25\00:03:02.22
like this and then we
gonna crunch it down and squeeze
00:03:02.23\00:03:05.02
together here in the middle and
reach back up and squeeze down.
00:03:05.03\00:03:10.58
And hopefully you
should feel that in your chest
00:03:10.59\00:03:12.94
as you come down, good.
00:03:12.95\00:03:15.56
It is kind of like
an old bodybuilder pose
00:03:15.57\00:03:17.25
where we come and
squeeze in the middle of here.
00:03:17.26\00:03:19.06
Just need oil on our bodies
and we'll look great, right.
00:03:20.90\00:03:24.92
And a sun tan. Good.
00:03:24.93\00:03:29.99
Squeeze down. And
squeeze, good, can be 10 more.
00:03:31.08\00:03:38.53
There's one, and two, and three,
00:03:38.54\00:03:44.82
while we do the
exercise we want to make sure
00:03:44.83\00:03:46.50
we breathe properly in through
the nose out through the mouth.
00:03:46.51\00:03:50.84
By no means when
somebody's hypertensive,
00:03:50.85\00:03:53.02
we want to do
the Valsalva effect
00:03:53.03\00:03:55.79
which is where you bow
down and cut off the air.
00:03:55.80\00:03:59.58
It increases the intracranial
and intrathoracic pressure
00:03:59.59\00:04:02.76
and could be very dangerous
to anybody who is hypertensive.
00:04:02.77\00:04:06.96
Two more and last one.
00:04:06.97\00:04:11.53
Squeeze, now just hold
that there, hold that squeeze.
00:04:11.54\00:04:14.58
Want to hold that
for a ten second count.
00:04:14.59\00:04:17.02
One, two, three,
four, keep breathing,
00:04:17.03\00:04:20.96
five, six, seven,
eight, nine, ten. Good.
00:04:20.97\00:04:27.11
So we do those exercises
if we don't have hypertension
00:04:27.12\00:04:30.31
then we can really
bow down and squeeze high.
00:04:30.32\00:04:32.77
And for those
who are hypertensive
00:04:32.78\00:04:34.09
we simply want you to go
through the range of motion
00:04:34.10\00:04:36.54
get a little bit of squeeze,
feel the muscles contract.
00:04:36.55\00:04:38.84
The bow means make sure you're
breathing stays real regular
00:04:38.85\00:04:42.22
and you don't feel any
pressure happening in your head.
00:04:42.23\00:04:44.59
We don't want to cause
any risk factors at all.
00:04:44.60\00:04:47.16
Now Mike, whenever
we work on exercise
00:04:47.17\00:04:48.82
we like to stretch the
body probably we just work.
00:04:48.83\00:04:51.26
So in this case we just
did our chest so we gonna just
00:04:51.27\00:04:53.16
reach back like we're
taking nice good morning yarn.
00:04:53.17\00:04:57.61
But don't start yarning now.
00:04:57.62\00:04:59.43
Okay, bring it across,
okay, and we're gonna feel
00:04:59.44\00:05:04.43
stretching the upper
back as we do this one.
00:05:04.44\00:05:06.21
I'm gonna reach back
again, feel it stretch
00:05:07.77\00:05:13.77
and then we're
gonna bring it across.
00:05:13.78\00:05:15.03
We're gonna hold each stretch
for about 10 to 15 seconds.
00:05:18.58\00:05:21.68
So let's hold it
for five more seconds.
00:05:23.19\00:05:25.36
Four, three,
two, one, okay good.
00:05:25.37\00:05:29.91
Mike there's a couple of towels
over there on the treadmill
00:05:29.92\00:05:31.78
if you can get those for us.
00:05:31.79\00:05:33.37
Those are gonna become our
exercise equipment for the day.
00:05:33.38\00:05:35.93
Thank you. What we gonna do is
00:05:37.28\00:05:40.96
we gonna put nice
steady tension on the towel
00:05:40.97\00:05:43.52
as if we want to tear it apart.
00:05:43.53\00:05:45.09
But once you're not
gonna bow down too much.
00:05:45.10\00:05:47.55
And this can make a
real handy exercise to do
00:05:47.56\00:05:49.49
and bringing up over the head
now we're gonna just dip down
00:05:49.50\00:05:52.79
to the side and back
over to the other side, good.
00:05:52.80\00:05:57.22
We want to focus on the muscles
right into here as we do this.
00:06:03.83\00:06:06.46
Okay not bad,
just keep going. Good.
00:06:08.47\00:06:13.27
As we keep the
muscles tense and take them
00:06:14.48\00:06:17.37
to a range of motion you get
the benefit of the stimulation
00:06:17.38\00:06:23.24
without risking
elevation of blood pressure.
00:06:23.25\00:06:27.18
And although the
systolic pressure would,
00:06:27.19\00:06:30.37
most likely go up during
a severe exercise session,
00:06:30.38\00:06:33.71
the diastolic arterial number
00:06:33.72\00:06:35.71
should not
elevate during that time.
00:06:35.72\00:06:37.32
Okay, keep going and
let's do five more each way.
00:06:40.48\00:06:45.09
It's one, good, two,
00:06:47.69\00:06:52.60
and three, two more times.
00:06:55.88\00:06:58.68
Keep going on the
towel, four, and five, good.
00:06:58.69\00:07:05.29
Now with the same position
up far we gonna pull over
00:07:05.30\00:07:08.80
to the front and
then back up again.
00:07:08.81\00:07:12.99
And pullover, want
to give a lot focus
00:07:13.00\00:07:19.32
on pulling towel apart and
then pushing the scapula out
00:07:19.33\00:07:26.89
as we come down to the bottom.
00:07:26.90\00:07:29.35
This is a stimulation
of a pullover exercise,
00:07:29.36\00:07:32.21
it can be done on exercise
equipment such as Nautilus
00:07:32.22\00:07:36.90
or some other the
famous brands of today.
00:07:36.91\00:07:38.63
Good, just keep it going.
00:07:43.82\00:07:45.97
And we gonna do five more.
00:07:52.90\00:07:54.15
It's one, and two, and three,
00:07:56.25\00:08:03.44
two more times,
four, and five, good.
00:08:03.45\00:08:10.79
Okay, now we gonna do
is we gonna take our hand,
00:08:10.80\00:08:12.42
we gonna grab
the end of the towel.
00:08:12.43\00:08:14.55
We use our other hand,
so just you've to just grab
00:08:14.56\00:08:18.31
the end of it there,
we use the other hand
00:08:18.32\00:08:20.57
pretty close to it so I
can use it as a resistance.
00:08:20.58\00:08:23.59
We gonna raise up and pull down.
00:08:23.60\00:08:26.06
We want to work
it both up and down.
00:08:30.74\00:08:32.17
You wanna go where
you're comfortable.
00:08:34.79\00:08:37.57
You want to accessibly
strain and for those at home
00:08:37.58\00:08:41.36
who are just wanting to
get their regular exercise in
00:08:41.37\00:08:44.46
then you can go
as hard as you want.
00:08:44.47\00:08:46.31
Amazing thing they found
about blood pressure Mike,
00:08:50.59\00:08:52.56
as a research so
that they can get
00:08:52.57\00:08:54.52
people in various test
groups, they can get them
00:08:54.53\00:08:58.53
to the medications
that are popular today
00:08:58.54\00:09:01.08
the diuretics or the
beta-blocker which sores
00:09:01.09\00:09:03.15
the heart down,
and they can game like
00:09:03.16\00:09:05.11
seagull and then
have an exercise.
00:09:05.12\00:09:08.37
You want to check the
group out they find that
00:09:08.38\00:09:10.65
all three groups had
similar drops in blood pressure.
00:09:10.66\00:09:13.68
So what's that
showing us here the placebo
00:09:13.69\00:09:15.31
a very effective
blood pressure medication
00:09:15.32\00:09:17.86
or the fact that all
the groups were exercising
00:09:17.87\00:09:20.21
shows that the exercise
is really the key component
00:09:20.22\00:09:22.82
for helping bring
that blood pressure down.
00:09:22.83\00:09:24.97
Okay, let's do two more.
00:09:26.62\00:09:28.83
Trying to feel that
shorter a little bit, yeah.
00:09:28.84\00:09:31.84
Not too bad though.
00:09:31.85\00:09:32.99
Can switch over
the other side, okay.
00:09:33.00\00:09:37.47
Also we find by the type
of body acids people take in,
00:09:38.61\00:09:42.33
they can affect themselves.
00:09:42.34\00:09:44.85
Now people take
in hydrogenated fats.
00:09:44.86\00:09:47.72
They get the wrong
type of fatty acids,
00:09:47.73\00:09:50.20
the wrong type of
chemicals are being produced
00:09:50.21\00:09:52.04
out of the cells and
it will affect things like
00:09:52.05\00:09:54.90
the elasticity of
the artery lining.
00:09:54.91\00:09:57.93
So when somebody is
on lots of harmful fats
00:09:57.94\00:10:01.03
like mandarins and
other hydrogenated fats,
00:10:01.04\00:10:04.71
which are like, the mandarins
00:10:04.72\00:10:06.24
are actually kind
like a plastic to the body
00:10:06.25\00:10:08.68
and the body is what do am
I supposed to do with this.
00:10:08.69\00:10:10.78
You know, plug it in with
the cells I don't think so.
00:10:10.79\00:10:13.42
So what happens then as
the blood pressure elevates
00:10:13.43\00:10:16.54
and then when we go off
the Trans fats we find that
00:10:16.55\00:10:18.79
the blood pressure
will come down very nicely
00:10:18.80\00:10:20.96
and three to four
or may be five days.
00:10:20.97\00:10:21.96
Seen tremendous
drops in blood pressure
00:10:23.81\00:10:25.72
people have come in
with blood pressures of
00:10:25.73\00:10:27.85
220 over a 140
just extremely high.
00:10:27.86\00:10:31.43
And within a
three week time period
00:10:31.44\00:10:32.62
bring it down to a normal range.
00:10:32.63\00:10:34.34
Because always a
worry to cooperate
00:10:34.35\00:10:35.66
and do what's
necessary of good eating habits,
00:10:35.67\00:10:38.92
drink lots of water,
getting the essential rest,
00:10:38.93\00:10:41.92
and of course exercise.
00:10:41.93\00:10:44.63
And the sad thing is we got
four more here I'm counting.
00:10:47.29\00:10:51.48
The sad thing is here
if people do not keep up
00:10:51.49\00:10:56.32
with their exercise their
blood pressure is going to start
00:10:56.33\00:10:58.28
going back up again
and you would wonder why
00:10:58.29\00:11:00.31
when somebody gets to a
point where they don't have
00:11:00.32\00:11:02.44
those problems
anymore why would they wanna
00:11:02.45\00:11:04.17
just not do
anything and they go up.
00:11:04.18\00:11:07.78
They don't
understand but so that it is.
00:11:07.79\00:11:10.84
Okay, we're gonna
do some curls now.
00:11:10.85\00:11:12.84
What we gonna do with
this drape it like this,
00:11:12.85\00:11:15.83
so goes outside
and you can grab here.
00:11:15.84\00:11:19.71
Okay, we gonna just
curl it up pull back out.
00:11:19.72\00:11:22.36
Again we're dictating
how hard we gonna work.
00:11:23.75\00:11:27.44
So for those at home go
after and you feel really,
00:11:27.45\00:11:30.40
or feeling good and healthy.
00:11:30.41\00:11:31.77
You can push yourself but
for those who are hypertensive
00:11:31.78\00:11:34.67
who're interested in the
program that they can give
00:11:34.68\00:11:37.92
just take this
to a range of motion
00:11:37.93\00:11:39.37
and get yourself
to some nap resistance
00:11:39.38\00:11:41.48
can give yourself some
work which you wanna to do.
00:11:41.49\00:11:44.43
And the beauty of this is
you gonna find it after a while,
00:11:50.85\00:11:54.96
no longer have to worry so
much about the hypertension
00:11:54.97\00:11:57.66
because it will be
a thing of the past.
00:11:57.67\00:11:59.27
Five more.
00:12:01.88\00:12:02.94
Pretty fancy exercise equipment
we've here, isn't that.
00:12:09.35\00:12:11.51
Okay, good. Let's
switch to other side
00:12:13.34\00:12:15.61
but also you can see it
can still be very effective
00:12:15.62\00:12:17.77
when you do a
good workout there.
00:12:17.78\00:12:19.22
Again we're
gonna drape to outside
00:12:19.23\00:12:21.51
and curl up and pull down.
00:12:21.52\00:12:22.84
We want to focus on
the muscle we're working,
00:12:34.63\00:12:36.24
in this case it's bicep.
00:12:36.25\00:12:37.57
Each time you pull up
you're arm should shorten,
00:12:40.12\00:12:43.76
muscle should shorten
and then you extend it out
00:12:43.77\00:12:47.32
so you get a
good full contraction.
00:12:47.33\00:12:48.93
Also I need to mention
it you don't have to eat
00:12:58.10\00:13:00.01
a lot of meat and so forth
in order to become muscular.
00:13:00.02\00:13:03.76
I used to eat three
pounds of meat a day,
00:13:03.77\00:13:05.88
gallon of milk, half dozen eggs.
00:13:05.89\00:13:07.13
I used to have
high blood pressure
00:13:07.14\00:13:08.13
when I was 17 years old.
00:13:08.14\00:13:09.49
One more time, okay relax.
00:13:11.36\00:13:14.95
And then I went to become a
total vegetarian 20 years ago
00:13:14.96\00:13:17.87
and now blood
pressure is like 110 over 60.
00:13:17.88\00:13:20.33
So I was much worse when I was
17 than I'm now in my mid 40's.
00:13:20.34\00:13:25.07
So we can really turn
it around even though we--
00:13:25.08\00:13:28.10
the years click along.
00:13:28.11\00:13:29.27
Okay, now we're going
to do some tricep exercise.
00:13:29.28\00:13:32.08
What we're do is we gonna bend
over little bit at the waist,
00:13:32.09\00:13:35.39
you gonna start with it in here.
00:13:35.40\00:13:37.36
We gonna kick it back
and pull back through.
00:13:37.37\00:13:40.77
Okay, you wanna keep
your elbow in one spot.
00:13:40.78\00:13:43.52
Oh, I'll help you out and
bend over just a little bit.
00:13:43.53\00:13:46.32
Take your elbow up, okay,
push it out, all the way out.
00:13:46.33\00:13:50.76
Okay, you wanna give
yourself enough, here you go.
00:13:50.77\00:13:53.07
Okay, fore through,
back out, excellent.
00:13:53.08\00:13:56.59
You wanna feel
contracting right here.
00:13:58.16\00:14:00.85
Feel that one? Okay, go on.
00:14:00.86\00:14:04.60
Way out, just
way out, good, good.
00:14:04.61\00:14:07.87
Good, keep going.
Let's do ten more.
00:14:10.45\00:14:13.33
The elbow up, way out, good.
00:14:14.77\00:14:19.68
And five more.
00:14:21.47\00:14:22.80
Okay, let's go
the other way now.
00:14:31.17\00:14:32.30
Here you go, bend over
little bit and push it out.
00:14:35.23\00:14:38.97
Okay, good. The elbow up.
00:14:38.98\00:14:41.61
Working your entire body for
hypertension is very beneficial.
00:14:43.80\00:14:48.96
We're trying to open up the
pathways all through the body.
00:14:48.97\00:14:51.27
Wanting for good circulation
as we do that we'll find that
00:14:53.90\00:14:58.42
the blood pressure
will go down nicely.
00:14:58.43\00:15:00.82
Also we find by doing
good regular exercise we start
00:15:03.12\00:15:06.14
going triglyceride
levels and start helping up
00:15:06.15\00:15:09.55
by producing more HDL
cholesterol which helps
00:15:09.56\00:15:12.53
stake fats--fat
part out of the arteries
00:15:12.54\00:15:15.99
and just that process
alone opening things up
00:15:16.00\00:15:18.30
will help blood
pressure come down.
00:15:18.31\00:15:20.33
Okay, let's do
five more, two more.
00:15:21.77\00:15:28.98
Okay, next. All right let's
get rid of the towels here.
00:15:31.99\00:15:36.34
Now we gonna do a
little upper body stretching.
00:15:36.35\00:15:38.30
We're gonna put the
arm up over the head
00:15:38.31\00:15:40.54
and gonna pull
it over, like this.
00:15:40.55\00:15:43.58
Here we go, reach
back and come up here.
00:15:46.06\00:15:48.96
Reach elbow and grab it, okay.
00:15:48.97\00:15:52.34
Come on top here, good.
00:15:54.66\00:15:58.79
Okay, you just want
to hold down stretch.
00:15:58.80\00:16:03.29
Okay let's switch to
over the other side now.
00:16:07.01\00:16:09.74
Keeping up
flexibility is very important.
00:16:12.09\00:16:14.31
Just the case muscles
get enlarged doesn't mean
00:16:17.65\00:16:19.71
people have to
lose their flexibility.
00:16:19.72\00:16:22.12
Flexibility lost when people
don't stretch or don't exercise.
00:16:22.13\00:16:26.02
Okay, and relax. Okay, now
we're gonna do the shoulder.
00:16:29.08\00:16:32.82
Way we gonna do that
is bring your arm across,
00:16:32.83\00:16:35.32
grab behind the
elbow and pull it across.
00:16:35.33\00:16:37.22
Stretching is something
it will be very beneficial
00:16:41.29\00:16:43.36
for brain that is hypertensive.
00:16:43.37\00:16:44.92
Because stretching
tends to relax the body
00:16:44.93\00:16:47.36
and when you relax
that helps blood pressure.
00:16:47.37\00:16:50.72
I think we all realize
that stress can be a big factor.
00:16:50.73\00:16:55.23
One of our health cares one time
who was having some problems
00:16:55.24\00:16:58.37
with blood pressure we got
the blood pressure normalized
00:16:58.38\00:17:01.08
and we started talking
about a stressful situation.
00:17:01.09\00:17:04.78
I told a nurse to take
blood pressure again real quick.
00:17:04.79\00:17:07.15
And just in those 15
seconds we were talking
00:17:07.16\00:17:09.94
her blood
pressure jumped 20 points
00:17:09.95\00:17:11.28
because we were talking
about stressful factors.
00:17:11.29\00:17:13.34
She goes, wow,
didn't know how much
00:17:13.35\00:17:15.09
it could really be
effective that way.
00:17:15.10\00:17:16.87
Okay, just roll the shoulders.
00:17:16.88\00:17:18.16
Because you've no
stress in life, right.
00:17:23.04\00:17:24.81
I mean I work where you work.
00:17:27.25\00:17:28.80
Okay, reverse it now.
00:17:33.75\00:17:35.40
Now try and lift those shoulders
up close as you can to ears.
00:17:39.63\00:17:44.28
Okay, and relax.
00:17:48.34\00:17:50.11
All right, now we
want to work the lower body
00:17:50.12\00:17:53.01
because as we--is we
get blood circulating well.
00:17:53.02\00:17:56.06
We can do a lot of
good things for that.
00:17:56.07\00:17:58.17
So what we gonna do is we gonna
cross arms across the chest.
00:17:58.18\00:18:00.79
We're gonna do some squats.
00:18:00.80\00:18:01.80
We're not gonna go very
deep because that once again
00:18:01.81\00:18:04.42
will tend to make people
want to bow down too much.
00:18:04.43\00:18:08.42
So we're just gonna
do a nice partial squad
00:18:08.43\00:18:10.87
and we're gonna
have our feet little wide
00:18:10.88\00:18:12.58
and shoulder width
turned out slightly.
00:18:12.59\00:18:14.64
Now we're gonna sit back into
our squat push our hips back,
00:18:14.65\00:18:18.02
okay, and back up again.
00:18:18.03\00:18:20.33
Okay, we're not gonna strain,
00:18:20.34\00:18:21.46
we're just gonna do
some reputations here.
00:18:21.47\00:18:23.80
Now for those who want to
work harder than feel free
00:18:23.81\00:18:26.29
to go deeper as
we do these squats.
00:18:26.30\00:18:28.60
So you can do them very slowly,
00:18:28.61\00:18:30.51
if you been regular
watchers of the program you know
00:18:30.52\00:18:32.83
that there are
various ways we can do squats.
00:18:32.84\00:18:35.06
We can do them super
slow, we can do them real deep,
00:18:35.07\00:18:38.61
how we want to do them.
00:18:38.62\00:18:41.31
For today we're focusing
on people with hypertensive,
00:18:41.32\00:18:43.91
we want to fall along with
the program that'll help them
00:18:43.92\00:18:46.83
to overcome their problem.
00:18:46.84\00:18:48.73
So that's what
will be our focus today.
00:18:48.74\00:18:51.14
We're not going
to do the deep ones.
00:18:51.15\00:18:52.42
We gonna put some
reputations in there. Okay.
00:18:57.03\00:19:00.77
Push the hips
back a little more,
00:19:05.28\00:19:06.95
try to avoid shooting your knees
over your feet. That's better.
00:19:06.96\00:19:10.22
Look like Michael
Jackson out there.
00:19:14.59\00:19:16.28
Okay. Just keep it going.
00:19:18.45\00:19:23.19
Once people start
becoming hypertensive
00:19:31.15\00:19:33.15
another problem start to develop
the one we worry about most
00:19:33.16\00:19:37.68
would be the stroke
and the heart diseases.
00:19:37.69\00:19:40.79
It just you have
rotation in that artery lining.
00:19:40.80\00:19:43.94
Starts
encouraging the over growth of
00:19:43.95\00:19:45.81
smooth muscle cell which
forms that crack swelling.
00:19:45.82\00:19:51.51
Okay, let's do ten more.
00:19:51.52\00:19:52.85
The non-saturated
fats, high cholesterol
00:19:57.19\00:20:01.38
all that
encourages hypertension.
00:20:01.39\00:20:03.46
And two more. Good.
00:20:10.47\00:20:14.94
Okay, now we're gonna do
is we step out to the side
00:20:14.95\00:20:19.79
and we can feel
the leg work that way.
00:20:19.80\00:20:22.17
Okay, now shift the
other way and back over.
00:20:22.18\00:20:25.80
And shift, good. Keep going.
00:20:27.60\00:20:33.24
This gives us a
little more thigh work.
00:20:36.53\00:20:39.17
Pressing helps
stretch inside the thigh.
00:20:39.18\00:20:41.03
Okay, we're in the
five more each side.
00:20:48.03\00:20:49.71
Here is one, and two,
00:20:51.58\00:20:56.19
and three, and four,
00:20:58.77\00:21:03.62
last one, five, good.
00:21:03.63\00:21:05.99
Now we're gonna
put one foot back
00:21:07.18\00:21:09.64
and press the heel therefore.
00:21:09.65\00:21:11.85
We gonna push up on
the toe and back down.
00:21:11.86\00:21:14.87
You can squeeze off
some repetitions like that.
00:21:20.05\00:21:22.83
I'm trying to 20 of them.
00:21:22.84\00:21:23.99
It's five, six, seven, eight,
00:21:24.00\00:21:32.06
lower body muscles work to help
00:21:32.07\00:21:34.40
the veins blood flow
return for the heart.
00:21:34.41\00:21:37.66
So by doing whole body
exercise we also accentuate
00:21:37.67\00:21:42.00
the body's ability
to circulate blood.
00:21:42.01\00:21:43.91
Okay, six more, one, two, three,
00:21:46.61\00:21:54.01
four, five, and six, good.
00:21:54.02\00:21:59.67
And switch. And press up.
00:21:59.68\00:22:03.99
You've to focus on
the muscle you're working.
00:22:11.89\00:22:14.43
Should press it way up.
00:22:14.44\00:22:15.75
You can take the heel
down flat to the floor.
00:22:17.65\00:22:20.20
More range of motion we
get the better off we are.
00:22:23.04\00:22:26.11
Let's keep the
flexibility we need.
00:22:26.12\00:22:28.35
Five more.
00:22:33.48\00:22:34.84
Good job. All right, I'm
gonna work the abdominal area.
00:22:42.41\00:22:46.55
We've dealt with that yet,
00:22:46.56\00:22:49.18
and we're gonna do
this from standing position.
00:22:49.19\00:22:51.42
When people have hypertension
if we get him lying down
00:22:51.43\00:22:56.40
sometimes we can elevate
it a little bit so we wanna--
00:22:56.41\00:22:59.34
we just stay standing up
and work from that position.
00:22:59.35\00:23:03.02
And what we're gonna do
is we just kind of crunch
00:23:03.03\00:23:04.58
our abdomen like this and
we push our lower back out
00:23:04.59\00:23:08.83
and just shorten
the abdominal wall.
00:23:08.84\00:23:11.27
And then what
we do from there is
00:23:11.28\00:23:13.55
we're going to crunch over,
00:23:13.56\00:23:16.32
then we're gonna stand back up.
00:23:16.33\00:23:18.08
Keep abdominal in that crunch
position and then lay back.
00:23:18.09\00:23:21.91
Crunch over, lean over,
up and then lean it back.
00:23:21.92\00:23:28.43
Okay, crunch over, up and back.
00:23:28.44\00:23:34.75
Good, let's just keep it going.
00:23:34.76\00:23:38.04
Now it's important that we
shorten those muscles there.
00:23:38.05\00:23:41.95
Try and guard in, blow out.
00:23:41.96\00:23:46.05
That will help us
to do it, and back.
00:23:46.06\00:23:50.06
Blow out, crunch over,
again let's keep it going.
00:23:50.07\00:23:56.12
If you concentrate on this one
00:24:01.68\00:24:03.05
you can really
get a good feel on it.
00:24:03.06\00:24:05.42
it's a simple exercise
to do and along with that
00:24:05.43\00:24:08.90
we get a stretch
on lower back because
00:24:08.91\00:24:11.34
we lean back we get
a contraction on it.
00:24:11.35\00:24:14.91
It's a very
non-intrusive way of doing it.
00:24:14.92\00:24:18.30
Well, I'm trying
to do seven more.
00:24:26.24\00:24:27.51
And five more. Sure
keep breathing properly.
00:24:35.09\00:24:40.88
Out to the nose, okay.
00:24:40.89\00:24:45.92
Then to the nose
out through the mouth.
00:24:45.93\00:24:47.07
I get it right. Keep above.
00:24:47.08\00:24:50.57
Okay, I think we got two more.
00:24:53.12\00:24:56.78
And last one, good.
00:24:56.79\00:24:59.44
Okay, whenever we deal
with something like hypertension
00:25:00.32\00:25:02.90
or any exercise it's important
we've a nice cool down as well.
00:25:02.91\00:25:06.08
So we're gonna do a couple of
exercises now just to cool down.
00:25:06.09\00:25:09.35
First one you do is
turn the head to a side
00:25:09.36\00:25:11.53
and turn the other way
00:25:13.42\00:25:14.44
and turn, and turn,
00:25:16.79\00:25:21.05
and turn, and turn,
00:25:23.19\00:25:27.76
one more time,
turn, and turn, good.
00:25:27.77\00:25:33.04
Now we're gonna
do trunk rotation.
00:25:33.05\00:25:34.95
Stand the elbows up and turn.
00:25:34.96\00:25:36.97
Good, it's nice and gentle.
00:25:39.17\00:25:42.58
Okay, we gonna do
six more each way.
00:25:53.36\00:25:55.20
It's one, and two, and three,
00:25:57.94\00:26:06.81
four, two more, five,
00:26:09.37\00:26:13.34
last one, and six. Good.
00:26:13.35\00:26:18.82
Okay thanks a lot for all that.
00:26:18.83\00:26:21.46
Hypertension does not
have to be scary to you.
00:26:25.63\00:26:28.61
There can be ways
of correcting that.
00:26:28.62\00:26:30.55
If we simply look to get
on a good lifestyle program
00:26:30.56\00:26:33.74
it can't be one
that's confusing the body.
00:26:33.75\00:26:35.97
In other words why are
we good today and tomorrow
00:26:35.98\00:26:38.57
I won't be so good,
or I'll try and hit five,
00:26:38.58\00:26:41.41
out of sevens days
you'll good and hopefully
00:26:41.42\00:26:43.64
that will be good enough.
00:26:43.65\00:26:45.04
Well, unfortunately the body
doesn't always work that way.
00:26:45.05\00:26:47.46
If we get on a regular
program and do it everyday
00:26:47.47\00:26:50.34
we might slip once a while
but if we keep going forward
00:26:50.35\00:26:53.63
we'll find that we get
better and better and better.
00:26:53.64\00:26:55.90
Medications always gonna
have some type of side effects.
00:26:55.91\00:26:59.31
And all types of side effects
can cause a lot of problems
00:26:59.32\00:27:01.98
in the life and
people are so anxious
00:27:01.99\00:27:04.34
to get off the pills but
unfortunately in our society
00:27:04.35\00:27:07.41
a lot are looking
for that quick fix.
00:27:07.42\00:27:09.04
My blood pressure
is up give me a pill.
00:27:09.05\00:27:11.00
Unfortunately that is
not cure their blood pressure
00:27:11.01\00:27:14.05
it simply masking it so
they think they're okay.
00:27:14.06\00:27:17.57
But the reality is by
changing the lifestyle
00:27:17.58\00:27:20.76
and getting on a regular
exercise program, good diet,
00:27:20.77\00:27:23.96
lot's of rest and having
that a one real key component
00:27:23.97\00:27:27.52
and that's trust in God.
We've that peace of spirit.
00:27:27.53\00:27:31.01
It really does a
great things when found
00:27:31.02\00:27:33.39
where scientific evidence
say you've a regular program.
00:27:33.40\00:27:36.55
You gonna have less stress and
you gonna have better health.
00:27:36.56\00:27:39.12
Now if you
always claim it calmness
00:27:39.13\00:27:40.53
remember
Philippians 4:13. It says,
00:27:40.54\00:27:43.04
"I can do all things through
Christ who strengthens me."
00:27:43.05\00:27:47.31
God bless and see you next time.
