Stay Active Everyday

Staying physically active is one of the most effective ways of supporting heart health. Regular activity can help improve blood pressure, lower cholesterol, and strengthen overall cardiovascular function. Our goal is to make it easier for you to access reliable tools and information that support lasting, heart-healthy lifestyle changes. Some of the many benefits of regular physical activity include:

• Boosting energy levels
• Supporting stress management
• Promoting a positive attitude
• Preventing or delaying chronic illnesses and diseases
• Lowering blood pressure
• Preventing bone loss
• Increasing longevity and quality of life
• Improves sleep

According to Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, adults are recommended to get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity activity each week. Before starting any new exercise routine, it’s always a good idea to speak with your healthcare provider, especially if you have existing health conditions or concerns.
