Easy Ways To Prevent Heart Disease with Exercise
At Your Huntington Health Club

Exercising at your Huntington health club isn’t always easy, but it is one of the only controllable factors that can help prevent heart disease, the leading cause of death not only in the U.S., but worldwide. In fact, of six major controllable risk factors for heart disease, five can be managed in whole or in part by increasing exercise and physical activity (the sixth risk factor is smoking or tobacco use). The remaining three major risk factors are age, heredity, and sex, and exercise at your Huntington health club is the best way to diminish the impact of these, too.

According to the American Heart Association, 1.2 million people in America will have a heart attack this year. About a third of these people will die (452,000). Cumulative data is even more alarming—an estimated 7.9 million Americans over 20 now living have had a heart attack, and 8.9 million have experienced chest pain as the result of diminished blood supply to the heart (angina pectoris).

The Best Things You Can Do To Prevent Heart Disease

To prevent heart disease, or to improve heart condition if you already have heart disease, there are just a few things you can do. You can quit smoking and using tobacco (if you do), you can eat better and improve nutrition, and you can exercise at your Huntington health club. Being physically inactive is one of the most readily recognized risk factors for heart disease, but fortunately this is a totally controllable risk factor that can be reversed at any age and fitness level.

How Does Exercise Prevent Heart Disease?

Exercise at your Huntington health club prevents heart disease in several ways.

First, the heart is a muscle, and all muscles are made stronger and able to function better by repeated use—in this case, exercise. Exercise improves circulation and decreases blood pressure, thereby further eliminating factors that impact heart health.

In addition, exercise at your Huntington health club helps improve blood profiles. It balances out hormones, improves metabolism, and brings blood lipids (fats) under control. Exercise reduces levels of triglycerides in the blood (which have been linked to arterial disease) and increases HDL levels (HDL's being the good fats that improve heart health and that are seen at low levels in inactive adults).

Who Can Exercise For Heart Health And How?

Regular aerobic exercise at manageable levels is what majorly improves heart health, although strength training also factors into the equation and proves beneficial as well. Both of these are exercises that anyone can be involved in, even with a previous history of heart disease.

The key to exercising safely at your Huntington health club to prevent heart disease is to keep activity manageable and effective. But manageable is a highly relative term for individuals, and what is safest for one may be different for another. The best way to be sure exercise is both safe and effective is to seek professional help—first from a doctor, then from a qualified fitness professional, such as a personal trainer, who can coordinate and develop an exercise plan that is at once reasonable, safe, and effective.
