Physical Activity and Your Heart

Physical activity advice for people who have a heart condition or have recently had treatment for their condition, such as heart surgery.

This BHF booklet explains why physical activity is so important for the heart. In most cases, physical activity can help improve heart health and for those who already have a heart condition it can aid recovery after having heart surgery or a heart attack, and help improve many of the ‘risk factors’ which increase the overall risk of coronary heart disease.
