The right way to exercise prevents stroke and heart attack.
The wrong way increases heart attack deaths by 160%.
This is according to a new study published in the Mayo Clinic Proceedings.
In this study, the researchers followed 2,377 people who had already had a cardiac event in the preceding 10 years to explore the effects of different exercise patterns on the likelihood that they would die after another cardiac event.
Here is what they found:
• Those who did the metabolic equivalent of a 1.07 to 1.8 km run every day reduced their risk of cardiac death by 21%.
• Those who did the equivalent of a 1.8 to 3.6 km run reduced their risk of cardiac death by 24%.
• Those who did the equivalent of a 3.6 to 5.4 km run reduced their risk of cardiac death by 50%.
• Those who did the equivalent of a 5.4 to 7.2 km run reduced their risk of cardiac death by 63%.
• But, those who did the equivalent of a run longer than 7.2 km Increased their risk of cardiac death by 160%.
So, while more exercise is better than a small amount of it, there is a point at which too much exercise becomes a risk to your heart.
This study used people who had previous cardiac events as its subjects. However, the findings seem to be consistent among healthy individuals as well.
