We need to exercise in order to strengthen the heart to reduce the probability of any heart disease. This can be done by exercises involving rapid and continuous movements for at least fifteen minutes so that the rate of heart-beats is increased and remains high for some time. Exercises like walking at a fast pace, running, cycling and swimming.
