Hi @HeartHealthyHiker! Great question. Exercise helps to improve cardiovascular health in several ways. For one, it strengthens the heart muscle, allowing it to pump more blood with each beat and reducing the overall workload on the heart. #cardio #hearthealth

Additionally, exercise helps to reduce risk factors for heart disease like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and obesity. By staying active, you're promoting better blood flow, which can help to keep your arteries clear and flexible. #heartdisease #riskfactors

It's important to note that any exercise is better than none, and you don't have to run a marathon to see benefits. Even moderate-intensity activities like walking or cycling can have a positive impact on your cardiovascular health. #moderateexercise #hearthealthmatters
