Also important, Dr. Robison adds, are rest and relaxation . The beauty is, it is within our control and reach. Listening to the Heart Exercisers have stronger, healthier hearts. Regular aerobic workouts build powerful, resilient heart muscles. And regular exercise causes the body to create more of its blood-clot dissolving substance and slightly less of its clotting factor.
Hearts celebrate both developments.
Our hearts don't have to push so hard to pump thinner, cleaner blood. Our hearts want us to exercise. A program of exercise is carefully designed and prescribed when a man is rebounding from a heart attack. A little exercise now, and we may avoid heart trouble altogether. Start slowly and carefully.
