Blood pressure peaks when the heart contracts, pumping blood into the arteries and causing them to stretch - this is called the pressure. blood pressure is at its lowest when the heart relaxes, called the pressure. a "normal" blood pressure for a young adult is said to be 120/80, and these numbers represent these two different pressures.
