The average person needs at least 20 minutes of exercise three times a week.  I know it doesn’t sound like much, but this will help to strengthen your cardiovascular health and your overall fitness. 

Another good idea to keep in mind is that you should burn 3500 calories in a week by doing some sort of physical activity.

This will benefit you and your heart as well.

When you start any type fitness plan it is a good idea to speak to your doctor first to find out what exercise plan is going to be best for you and your body. When you speak with your doctor make sure that you discuss special concerns like blood pressure, hypertension and any special diet needs that you have.
