You'll have to ask your doctor whether stroke was included in their definition of cardiovascular disease. If so then this research needs to be redone with stroke patients included. It is YOUR DOCTOR'S RESPONSIBILITY to get you recovered enough to properly exercise enough.
YOUR DOCTOR'S RESPONSIBILITY!
How Much Exercise Do Older Adults Need to Ward Off Heart Disease?
- According to a new study published in the European Heart Journal, people over 60 years old who get daily moderate or intense exercise have a significantly lower chance of developing cardiovascular disease.
- Cycling for 20 minutes or more per day can keep your waist circumference, blood pressure, and cholesterol in check and also counts as vigorous physical activity.
As
we age, it can become harder and harder to make exercise a priority.
With full time jobs, family responsibilities, and busy social lives,
working out regularly can take a back seat—even if we don’t mean for it
to happen. But new research highlights just how important continuing to
make time for rides is for your heart—especially for those over 60.
The study, published in the European Heart Journal,
included more than 1.1 million people ages 60 or older with records
from the National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) in South Korea who had
no history of cardiovascular disease at the time their records were
first entered.
