Physical exercise or any form of activity has long-term health benefits
Exercise is important and is necessary for everyone. Physical exercise or any form of activity has long-term health benefits. Now as per new study teenagers who participate in high-intensity exercise have lower blood pressure.


Apparently, the study was conducted by researchers at the Children's Health and Exercise Research Centre at the University of Exeter, recruited healthy male teenagers (mostly 13-15 years old), who underwent testing on four separate occasions across three weeks.


Ricardo Oliveira, who led the research, said, "The best part of the research was the involvement and dedication of the participants, who we always find are better research participants than adults! All were disappointed that the project came to an end and they reported to have enjoyed visiting the university facilities, participating in a scientific study and learning new information about their heart, blood vessels and how the cardiovascular system responds to exercise."
