would isometric exercises ,exercises that involve arms above the head and only warming up a client with high blood pressure for only 5 minutes be appropriate and safe?

Hi Jo,

Typically no, but there is not enough information here. Is your client taking any medications for it? Are there any other physical limitations and/or medical issues? What is his age? What is his fitness level and what other (if any) exercises or training is he doing right now?
