7. You Won’t Know How To Keep Your Heart Strong
What do you think is the No. 1 killer in America? Cancer? Alzheimer’s? Diabetes? Nope. Heart disease. Numerous studies show that heart disease is something that can be prevented and one of the best ways to do that is to exercise your heart regularly!
Researchers at the Appalachian State University found that blood vessels that widen in response to exercise increase the blood flow to the heart. Not only that, but it also leads to a longer-lasting drop in overall blood pressure levels after subjects had finished exercising. Hypertension is one of the main contributors to heart disease.
Now that you know that heart disease is the top killer in America, how could you not prevent it from striking you? Heart attacks rarely give people a second chance. One heart attack can steal you away from your family and friends. How will they feel, knowing you could have prevented your untimely death but didn’t?
Why take the risk and play around with this killer? Get up and zap heart disease into the next millennium by doing a few jumping jacks right now!
You only have one life to live. Even if you believe in reincarnation, you won’t be back in this time in this body ever again. Why not take care of it to the best of your ability?
Go back to the gym or some other type of regular exercise and this time … make it count!
