Blood pressure

I came across this chart of blood pressure parameters,



which indicates optimal BP in the band from 120/80.

I thought that after exercise one's BP would go up, but according to this chart, BP after strenuous exercise is at the lower end of this scale, at 110/70.

If this is correct, and I assume it is, why?
