Regular moderate exercise has been shown to benefit your heart health. It is recommended that you remain physically active throughout the day and take regular aerobic exercise (e.g. walking, running, cycling, swimming) for 30-40 minutes, three times a week. Resistance training (e.g. weight training) is also recommended, especially in the older age group, to maintain muscle mass. Regular exercise is generally safe even if you have heart disease. You should discuss any exercise restrictions with your cardiologist.
