I have had my blood pressure supervised
for over ten years, and currently take
atenolol and a diuretic. A combination of
the medication, exercise and diet
generally works for me, although I do have
the occasional blip. The main exercise I
take is walking, elliptical cycle and
bicycle. Would it be safe to use rubber
chest expanders to tone my upper body? I
read somewhere that they can elevate blood
pressure, but I used to be very pleased
with the toning and stretching effects
that I got from them.

It would be best to consult with your
doctor on this issue.
