This force exerts pressure on the walls of the blood vessels, primarily the arteries. A study published in 1995 recorded maximum blood pressure of 370/360 mm Hg. The doctors involved in the study recorded the blood pressure of 10 athletes. Each athlete performed double-leg press sets at 85% and 100% of maximum capacity, once with a closed glottis Valsalva (a forceful attempted exhalation against the closed airway) and then with slow exhalations. Although athletes in that study endured blood pressure of 300+, BP crossing above 180 is dangerous as it can lead to heart or kidney failure.\n
