Stress is a natural part of life, but chronic stress can increase the risk of heart disease. At Milagros Personal Training Center in Carmel Valley, we help you manage stress and protect your heart through exercise.
How Stress Affects the Heart
When you’re stressed, your body releases hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. Over time, this can lead to:
- Higher blood pressure
- Increased heart rate
- Inflammation
- Higher cholesterol
All of these factors contribute to heart disease.
How Exercise Helps
Regular exercise is a powerful way to lower stress and improve heart health. Here’s how:
- Lowers Stress Hormones
Exercise reduces cortisol, helping your body relax. - Boosts Endorphins
Physical activity releases endorphins, which improve your mood and reduce stress. - Strengthens the Heart
A stronger heart pumps blood more efficiently, lowering blood pressure and reducing strain on your cardiovascular system. - Promotes Better Sleep
Exercise helps you sleep better, which is essential for stress management and heart health. - Reduces Inflammation
Exercise reduces chronic inflammation, which is linked to heart disease.
