Hello
Thanks for posting
I have gone through your query and really appreciate concern for health. Since,you have blood pressure of few years,hence it is best to go for cardiac check up in form of ECG/TMT test and blood test (lipid profile) before you jump on to the treadmill.
Meanwhile, you may do brisk walk and XXXXXXX namaskar.
Hope your query is answered.
Take care
