Walking for 30 mins daily, cutting down on sugar n salt intake, avoiding junk food n overeating will solve most of the heart problems👍🍫

Everyones gangsta untill the heart takes a rest day

Ever since I gained weight during my birthday, I started cutting back on junk food and running to get my heart rate up. I also have to do a lot of running and cardiovascular exercises because I'm in frisbee at college and I have to practice running and throwing the frisbee. So I am doing my heart a favor and my whole body.

It blows my mind that the heart needs such little exercise to stay healthy … like 30 minutes of walking a day
(But not the rest of the body!)

After the second shot of vaccine, I exercised heavily and it took a toll on my heart, because I had high levels of cholesterol. Now I'm on statins and normal exercise, I dearly advice everyone to check your cholesterol levels and then workout..

Running pretty fast from the mnra jab will keep your heart healthy

His term "target" means theoretical maximum heart rate.
Your actual maximum may be higher or lower depending on fitness level.

My heart is healthy but I am striving to make it stronger happier and healthier

Past My brother's heart is weak
now he is using a Total heart support cap and he feels good.
it is a very effective cap and it maintains and makes strong heart muscle.

I must be an alien, I am 62 with a max rate of 187 by active exercise testing. I have been a racing cyclist for decades and I haven't seen a measurable drop at all since I was about 35 when I got my first pulse meter. This calculation of 220 minus age can be wildly inaccurate in continuously well trained individuals as I have proved. It is like saying as you get older your arms must get shorter.

For ashmatic patients how to do the exercises for heart??

[marknomura]

Yeah, I don't think I'd describe 8-10km/hr (~5-6 mph) as "walking."

[bristolbullterrier.]

I walk 7 days a week back and Ford from my local pizza shop wth a 12 inch pizza with 4 toppings, job done.

Of course getting health / fitness advice from American medical associations can be hazardous to your health.

[donlofting]

That was pretty straight forward thanks

[stanleyj.mitchell]

So I am 67. 220 minus 67 equals 153. The only time I see it there is in a stress test. At home or out walking the best I’ve seen it is around 120, mostly 105-110 maybe. I have a Fitbit fitness tracker.

Zen says a doctor without sports background personally should not suggest or recommend an advise on such a subject

[pranavgainz]

It seems a lot of the scientific evidence on developing cardiovascular health and performance is to do multiple sets maximal intensity heart rate capacity. Ex. 5 sets of 45s or less max effort activity. It could be burpees, pushing a sled, sprinting up a hill. And in between sets you rest for as long as you need till you feel ready to perform the next set near maximum capacity usually 5mins or so. Olympic endurance athletes use this as the most effective method for increasing cardiovascular fitness/endurance. It sounds ironic since the total time spent working is a lot less. You’ve got to be in healthy physical condition to be able to train safely this way though.
