Being Heart Healthy

Being Heart Healthy

It Could Stop

Everyday you need to do something that makes your heart work harder.  
Not only does exercise strengthen the heart muscle, it causes blood vessels to dilate and expand.
All of this keeps the heart muscle retaining its elasticity.  When the heart muscle becomes rigid and hard, that is when a heart attack strikes.
For cardiovascular benefits, you must increase your pulse rate above its normal range. For the blood vessels to dilate you need to keep your pulse up for awhile.
All exercise can be beneficial; it does not have to be intense.  What it needs is to be is on a regular basis.
Walking is very good.  Costs nothing but your time.
