Default BP monitor - how to check calibration?

alan_m explained on 23/09/2017 :
A quick google confirms that BP tends to fall after some exercise.


I understood what I read, to suggest that BP would be helped to fall by
a long term exercise regime, rather than immediately after a quick bit
of exercise. I thought exercise, more blood flowing = higher pressure,
but maybe I misunderstood.


What is more telling with exercise is the heart rate and how long it takes to
come back to a low (at rest) reading after exercise.


My heart rate doesn't seem to vary much always between 80 and 100 no
matter what I am doing.
