According to holistic health expert Dr. Mickey Mehta, maintaining heart health is a lifelong adventure in which little, sustainable improvements over time can have a huge impact.
Often we focus on our heart health only when we have developed a condition. But the good thing is you can rev it up with simple exercises that do not require you to sign up at a gym. Remember that it’s never too late to make positive changes, so even if you’re starting later in life, every step toward a healthier lifestyle can have a positive impact. Heart health is a life-long journey, and making small, sustainable changes over time can have a significant impact. For all conditions of the heart, one must keep in mind that any pressure, stress, strain created by any movement of super intensity against gravity, especially explosive movements and especially long range of motions where there is heavy body weight exerted, need to be avoided. Walking, swimming, cycling are common exercises that anybody can do.
Knee push-ups: Compared to standard push-ups, knee push-ups are more simpler to perform. This serves as a very easy start to the realm of body weight resistance training and significantly minimizes the amount of the body’s own weight that is lifted. However, it may be recommended to first speak with your doctor before doing knee push-ups if you have a history of elbow, knee, shoulder, or wrist issues.
