A member asked:
If i walk a 3 miles everyday at 2.5 mph how long would i have too do this too get a lower resting pulse?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Intensity : The physiological changes associated with exercise depend on intensity, duration, and type of exercise. Aerobic exercise at moderate intensity ( heart rate around 120-140 BPM during exercise) will cause cardiovascular changes in about 4- 6 weeks. The higher the intensity and duration the better.
