Low Impact Exercises To Improve Your Heart Health
Friday, February 2, 2018
Friday 29th September is World Heart Day. It's the perfect opportunity to evaluate and look at small ways to improve your overall cardio health.
If you want to take this opportunity to make a start on improving your heart health, but don't want to dive into anything too strenuous, how about trying some of the following low impact cardio workouts?
Cycling
Both cycling indoors at the gym, or outdoors on the road, are relatively low impact in terms of putting stress on your joints and heart. Cycling is a great way to burn lots of calories and improve your overall health. The ability to control the level of intensity makes it great for those just starting out.
Swimming
Swimming is another great choice for a low impact workout, some even find it quite relaxing! Research has shown that swimming can slim the body and improve cholesterol level - something which is important to overall heart health.
Walking
Finally, daily brisk walking is an easy way to burn calories, build up stamina and ultimately improve the health of your heart. According to the NHS, a 10 minute daily brisk walk has a multitude of health benefits. If you are looking for a more intense workout, try upgrading to a jog to get that heart pumping a bit faster.
