Cardiovascular health is about maintaining the health of the heart and blood vessels which in turn ensures the blood pumping around your body has the vital oxygen and nutrients to maintain good health reducing the risk of heart attacks and strokes.  Working to maintain good cardiovascular health helps to reduce cardiovascular disease which can be caused by high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, diabetes, inactivity and being overweight. 

Improving your cardiovascular health through aerobic exercise is an important part of any exercise regime.  It helps to pump blood around your system, lower blood pressure and regulate blood sugar.  Aerobic exercise can also help reduce back pain, reduce asthma symptoms, aid sleep, regulate weight, strengthen your immune system, improve concentration, improve balance and agility and overall boost your mood.

There are many classes to choose from which will help you improve your overall cardiovascular health.  Simply look out for the Cardio icon when exploring our classes.
