Medfag here,
That's way, way too high. You should go to the ER immediately and get hooked up to an EKG, maybe a sonogram of your heart. You might have a stroke at any time.

thats really high man. you need to see a doctor. he might have to prescribe you something. seriously, no joke. go to a doctor.

Thanks for giving me actual advice, instead of being retarded high schoolers like the first two posters. I'll probably hit up my doctor later today.

Third medfag here to support this medfag.. You won't even make it to the hospital. You have to lie down on a sidewalk, call an ambulance, and hope to god you'll survive until they there.

He measured it right after his workout so it probably went down to normal levels fast. It is normal to have high bloodpressure while/right after working out.

Also, would it be possible for things like heavy pullups and dips to artificially inflate your blood pressure?

High systolic but low diastolic pressure?

First 'medfag' here again..
LOL, OK, we've had our fun; I'm not a medfag, just trolling you. Your BP is fine, especially after working out; you shouldn't check it right after anyway, you should check it when you're rested and sitting down, being calm and still. Next time check Wikipedia or some other source for what's considered 'high' blood pressure, don't ask /fit/.
Stop following meme diets and do cardio.
Less than 30% of your cals should be from fats, get at least .8g/lb protein and fill the rest with carbs. Eat veggies and fruits.
Bam, literally healthy in weeks
>>36531496
I can guarantee you this is caused because you dont fucking breath while you are working out. You are going to fucking die if you dont stop holding your breath while you are doing your reps.
BREATH MOTHERFUCKER WHILE YOU ARE REPPING, THAT SHIT IS CRUCIAL.
YOUR BODY, MUSCLES, TENDONS, THEY CAN ALL BEAR THE WEIGHT AND INTENSE EXERCISES, BUT YOUR FUCKING VEINS CANT, THEY ARE FRAGILE. SO BREATH FFS
>tfw op is now kill
