Question by Gagan on Feb 24, 2023Hindi

Health

I am 45 years old, can you please suggest me a good exercise for heart. Right now there is no issue with me related to heart.

Ans: The best way to strengthen any part or organ of the body is to appropriately challenge it with moderate amounts of stress and to then give it time to recover. You put stress on the muscles by lifting weights at the gym and they grow stronger when you take time to recover. Same concept would apply to the heart - you would challenge it with appropriate and moderate amounts of stress with cardio-vasuclar activity and then give it enough time to recover. Sun Salutations and Vinyasa styles of Yoga would be suitable for that. These should be supported by regular Pranayama practices like Box Breathing and mindfulness practices like meditation and Shavasana. Alternatively, you can consult a fitness trainer for other fitness activities suitable for your specific body type and needs.

Question by Nanda - Apr 18, 2023Hindi

Health

Dear Sir, I am 48 Yrs Male, Having BP from last 10 years and taking medicine daily morning, now BP always 150/100 and I also have BPH, I am regularly doing Morning walk and Yoga, Please suggest Sir

Ans: Hi. You are having early onset hypertension. Try to rule out any secondary causes of hypertension, especially kidney disease. You need to do Urine routine, Urine PCR and creatinine to rule out any kidney disease. Also you should do renal artery doppler to rule out any issues to the blood vessels supplying the kidneys. Once kidney disease is ruled out, you need to consult a physician and adjust your BP medicines. Continue with your walk and yoga. If obese, try to reduce weight. Reduce the salt intake.

Question by San - Oct 10, 2023Hindi

Health

Thanks for your answer. Can you suggest some more exercise

Ans: Hello Anonymous,
Each person has a different body type and structure.
It will be best if you can go for just one session to a trainer or physiotherapist. They will check your overall muscle strength, tightness of muscles, bone health and accordingly give you a set of exercises that is good for your body type. They will give you certain stretches and some exercises to strengthen muscles that may be weak in you. That should help you better than generalised exercises.

Ans: If you have slightly high blood pressure, it's essential to exercise cautiously and choose activities that won't excessively strain your cardiovascular system. I suggest you can continue with all your exercises but in moderation. Make sure to stop immediately if you feel short of breath or experience any discomfort.
