Heart Fitness

Have a heart is something you might hear if you’re not treating someone nicely. Yet how often do we not stop and treat our own heart nicely? We can all agree that having a heart is a good thing and just like a certain credit card – we’d never leave home without it. So then why do 25% of adults not bother to exercise at all?

When we stop and think that three out of five adults are not regularly active, we have to wonder just how important their heart is to them. We all know regular exercise is good for the heart and one of the biggest factors for healthy cardiovascular health. So why do we ignore our heart fitness?

It's easy to fall into the habit of making excuses

No Time
Bad Weather
Too Tired
No Money
Hurts Too Much
I’ll Start Tomorrow

So today you can make a choice to improve your healthy heart through responsibility, one step at a time and joining the movement of Heart Fitness.

Imagine your heart was suddenly stamped with an expiration date like those eggs or package of chicken wings in your refrigerator. What do we do with things when they expire?

We throw them out!

So in essence, you are willingly accepting an expiration date on your heart. In fact, by not taking care of your heart fitness, you are willing throwing out the possibility of time – years – on the life of your heart!

Does the argument there’s no time for exercise really stand up when you stamp your could-be healthy heart with an expiration date?

No!

So today you can make a choice to improve your healthy heart through responsibility, one step at a time and joining the movement of Heart Fitness.

It has been said that Movement is Medicine, so today you can begin by moving your body and increasing your heart rate. The heart is a muscle and when it’s exercised, it’s able to be stronger.

Make a commitment to yourself today to exercise and make healthy choices. Now the right cardio for you is best determined by your doctor. So you should never jump into a new program without first consulting with your physician.
