Walking is one of the easiest exercises, yet it has powerful benefits for your heart. When you walk for 25–30 minutes a day, it improves blood circulation and helps your heart pump more efficiently. This simple activity lowers bad cholesterol (LDL), increases good cholesterol (HDL), and helps control blood pressure.
Regular walking also reduces the risk of heart diseases and stroke because it keeps your blood vessels flexible and clear. Plus, it helps in weight control, which is another big factor for a healthy heart. You don’t need a gym — just a pair of comfortable shoes and consistency.
