110/60. It hovers around that. When I was 20lbs heavier doing little cardio and only lifting it was around 130/80.
Somebody on the previous page mentions you can extend you life by using statins if you have high cholesterol. All the studies I can find that are not financed by a statin companies shows an average of a modest 2 year of life extension with those that have high cholesterol. Important but not the panacea I thought it was.
Also some clogged arteries happen with people with low cholesterol. Why and is there some other mechanism at work causing it? Some say HDL to LDL ratio is a key factor instead of total cholesterol. Some say VLDL is what you should pay attention to. One thing I read is that clog heart attacks are an inflammation disease and cardiac inflammation should be measured and could be the most important blood test for heart disease . It's measured with C Reactive protein CRP test.
So it seems heart disease is a combo of a lot of causes. Some are genetics, high blood pressure, triglycerides, high blood sugar, high body weight, inflammation, cholesterol; Lipo protein A, having a heart muscle that's out of shape and all the rest. Bodybuilders forget the heart is a muscle. Since you can't show it off many bodybuilders don't care about cardio exercise. I think it's a mistake. Many guys that do cardio have much slower resting heart rates than guys that don't. It shows the muscle is stronger and doesn't have to work as hard.
I had a conversation through the internet with Casey Viator and he told me his blood work always comes back good. He died shortly after from a heart attack.
