Running Will Decrease Your Risk of CHD (Cardiovascular Heart Disease)
It is becoming more and more important to incorporate cardiovascular exercise into our daily routines. Research suggests that 20-30 minutes a day of cardiovascular exercise has enormous benefits on our overall health. While previous studies have linked exercise with a reduced risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), a recent study found that running, weight training, rowing and brisk walking, along with increased levels of intensity; can reduce the risk for men even further.The study included nearly 45,000 men between the ages of 40 and 75. They were surveyed at 2-year intervals about physical activity and CHD risk factors. Over the course of the twelve-year study, 1,700 new cases of CHD were documented.Findings suggest that of all exercise reported, running for an hour or more per week decreased the risk of heart disease the most. Men who reported running had a 42 percent risk reduction compared with men who did not run. This was followed by weight training for at least 30 minutes per week, which was found to decrease the risk by 23 percent. Men who reported rowing for an hour or more each week or brisk walking for at least 30 minutes per day, were both found to have an 18 percent risk reduction.Exercise intensity also played a role. Men who exercised at a high level of intensity decreased their risk of CHD by 17 percent, while those who exercised at a moderate level had a six percent lower risk, as compared with men who exercised at a low level.Getting started is easy! The best way to begin a cardiovascular exercise routine is to start with realistic goals and expectations. Go out on your first week and combine twenty minutes of running and walking, don’t worry about how far you have gone. This way your body can accommodate the new demands on the muscles and joints. Eventually you will be able to complete twenty minutes of moderate intensity running.A great place to get started would to be having a goal in mind. Training for a particular event is a great motivator.
