Why is blood pressure measured while we are resting Vs being measured while we are moving and active.

Question

What good does a blood pressure reading do if you are sitting down with a perfect 120/80 but once you start doing activity’s it rises 10-20 values. Considering that we are active most of the day would the higher values be bad for our body?

Thanks for explaining! I’ll just stick to resting, I’ve got enough trouble hitting 70% max performance. 😅👍
