HOW TO SLASH YOUR RISK FOR HEART DISEASE—EVEN IF YOU’RE PREDISPOSED TO IT
We’ve known for awhile that physical activity is good for your heart and can lower your risk of cardiovascular disease. But if heart disease runs in your family, you may have wondered if exercise will actually help slash your risk too.
A new study says yes. In the biggest research study to date on exercise and heart health, researchers found that exercise decreases the risk of heart disease—even if you’re genetically predisposed to it. In fact, high levels of cardio activity were associated with a 49 percent lower risk for coronary heart disease and a 60 percent lower risk for atrial fibrillations among individuals who had high genetic risk for these diseases.
Those are stats we can get behind—and they’re all the more reason for you to get your heart pumping with a barre3 workout today.
