Have you been feeling OK lately ?   My coach wants you to check my blood pressure .   Has anyone ever told you that you had high blood pressure ?   I don ’ t have any symptoms of high blood pressure .   People with high blood pressure seldom know they have it , which is why we call it the silent killer .   What test do you do for high blood pressure ?   We will pump air into this cuff to get a reading .   When you get the reading , what information does it give you ?   It tells me how hard your heart pumps blood and how much your arteries relax at rest .
