Your Guide to Physical
Activity and Your HeartAccording to the U.S.
Surgeon General’s Report on Physical Activity and Health,
inactive people are nearly twice as likely to develop heart
disease as those who are more active. Many of us know that we
should be more physically active, but often we have difficulty
getting started. This new easy-to-read guide from NHLBI uses
science-based information to help adults develop a safe and
effective program that can be sustained. Regular, moderate
physical activity of 30 minutes per day on most days of the
week improves your heart health and how you look and
feel. Find out about the importance of physical activity and
how to begin or maintain an activity program that’s right for
you. |
