Exercising can enhance your heart's health and reduce your possibility for heart disease. It also lowers your chances of getting a stroke, and it gives you energy and the ability to handle stress easier. To keep a healthy heart, go on a low-calorie diet and exercise. Be sure to exercise most days of the week at a moderate intensity. A moderate intensity should not cause pain or exhaustion in a few minutes, but it shouldn't be so easy that it can be done for hours. As you improve, put more effort into your exercise. Exercises that are repetitive and involve using your large muscles are good ideas for cardiovascular an are beneficial to caloric expenditure. This includes activities such as walking, jogging, bicycling, tennis, swimming, cross-country skiing, and more. Make sure your activity is enjoyable, meets your requirements, and will be done often. Your exercise should be about an hour in length and should be done for longer each day. You can alternate between activities too, and do different ones everyday, and the hour of exercising can be done in more than one session, as long as it all adds up to an hour for the day. Doing this will definitely increase your heart's physical condition.

If I knew someone who doesn't exercise for as much as they should be, I would encourage that
