• How can I exercise without harming my heart?

I had an echo done and my heart isn't relaxing like it should. The doctor put me on a beta blocker. How can I exercise without harming my heart?

Exercising at a mild to moderate pace will be sufficient to exercise your heart and peripheral muscles. Research shows that exercising in ten minute intervals is helpful and additive, meaning that if you did three periods of ten-minute exercise, then it’s equivalent to working out for thirty minutes.

It is important you go on a proper rehab exercise plan. Best thing to do is have your cardiologist refer you to the rehab cardiac center. Take care of yourself and your heart. You only have one.
