Preventing Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors through Aerobic Exercises

Abstract

This paper focused on the reduction of cardiovascular disease risk factors, through aerobic exercises. The central argument here is that through exercise there is the tendency for increased strength of the heart muscles. When this is the case, what follows is a reduction in body weight and ultimately less risk on the cardiovascular system. Generally, what could be deduced from the foregoing is the importance of aerobic exercises in the modification of cardiovascular diseases. Notably, such disease risk factors are largely influenced by the individual's lifestyle. The submission in this paper therefore is that one's consciousness of his health status can bring about positive modification of likely risk factors.

“…Exercise has been reported in several studies as a means of preventing chronic ailments and also helps in improving the standard of living of persons with longterm diseases such as diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive airway diseases, cancers, and depression (Adodo & Omoifo, 2011; American College of Sports Medicine [ACSM], 2010). Its benefits in the prevention of non-communicable diseases have also been well documented globally (Adodo & Omoifo, 2011;Sheikoleslami Ghanbarian, & Azizi, 2018;Saqib et al, 2020). These exercises have the capacity to mitigate a range of adverse outcomes related to HIV infection and the cardiometabolic and morphological distortions that may be associated with HAART.…”
