VRAM FACT π: Increased physical activity can lower LDL cholesterol by an average of 3β6 mg/dL.
LDL is commonly known as βbadβ cholesterol because too much of it can contribute to plaque buildup inside your arteries. Over time, this can restrict blood flow and increase your risk of heart attack and stroke.
That 3β6 mg/dL reduction may seem small, but it represents meaningful progress toward better heart health. Regular exercise can also help raise HDL, improve circulation, lower blood pressure, and strengthen your heart. Individual results may vary, but every workout supports the bigger picture. β€οΈπͺ
Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate activity each week, along with two days of strength training. Start where you are, stay consistent, and keep your heart moving!
