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?

It’s a lot harder to read blood pressure during activity, since the cuff needs to remain in long enough to read both systolic and diastolic pressure. Plus, the normal value is calculated on the assumption that the person is at rest. If it was normally read during exercise, the expected values would be based on that instead.
