Wats the best exercise for your heart?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Best cardiac exercis: Aerobic exercise such as running, walking, biking or swimming have been demonstrated to have beneficial effects on blood pressure, heart rate and lipids. These changes persist even after exercise and improve with more exercise. Beneficial effects have been seen with exercise for 20 to 30 minutes for three times per week.
