My dad has been suffering from high blood pressure for about a year now. He is at low risk for heart attack because he is very healthy, swimming at the gym every morning 5 days a week (although I’m not sure how good the genetics are). He has noticed just recently that the higher his heart rate is, the lower his blood pressure is. I’m guessing this has something to do with the physiological mechanism behind blood pressure and heart rate, so any additional information about that would be welcome.
