Before started exercising in 2013:

Total Cholesterol: 192
HDL 46
LDL 128
Triglycerides 91

Blood Pressure 116/92

After exercising:

Total Cholesterol: 182
HDL 52
LDL 119
Triglycerides 55

Blood Pressure 100/60


Not exercising for a year:

Total Cholesterol: 206
HDL 44
LDL 139
Triglycerides 113

Blood Pressure 120/80

My diet did get a little worse, but not significantly. Mostly just more snacking at night. Only gained 2 lbs. But the composition changed significantly after shoulder injury and couldn't lift.

Just posting this to give me the motivation to get off my a$$.
I think those numbers are terribly close to one another! There is a very small trend which might be in the noise!

I exercise and believe in it but those numbers are pretty good. Many people exercising don't have those slack off values you post!
