Heart Health Month
Heart Health Month
Caring for your heart goes beyond exercise—it’s about
building a lifestyle that supports cardiovascular health
and prevents disease.
Boost Your Cardiovascular Fitness | February 3-28
Consistency is Key
As you boost your heart rate, build strength, and improve blood circulation with Essentrics workouts, you’ll also increase your aerobic capacity, which helps maintain your energy and stamina. Without regular movement, aerobic capacity drops by about 10% every decade after 30—and being inactive accelerates aging, leading to fatigue and breathlessness even during simple daily activities.
The good news? Even light to moderate gentle cardio can slow this process, helping you stay strong and active over time. Just 30 minutes of movement 5-7 times per week can help lower blood pressure, lift your mood, improve your sleep, and support your heart health now and in the future.

Essentrics Heart Health Tips
Deep, consistent breathing is key to supporting cardiovascular wellness. It improves blood circulation, reduces tension, and enhances the benefits of your workout by increasing blood flow and oxygen delivery throughout your body.
Essentrics is about full-body engagement. Activate all your muscles with each movement to boost blood flow, build vascular strength and support healthy blood pressure levels.
Essentrics emphasizes flowing, dynamic full-range movements. Stay relaxed and avoid stiff or jerky motions. Gentle, intentional movement ensures effective blood circulation and protects your joints while improving your heart rate response.
Listen to your body and adjust the intensity as needed. Whether you’re managing cardiovascular disease or looking to build endurance, slowing down or reducing your range of motion still delivers significant benefits to your cardiovascular wellness.
Lengthening through your body, engaging your core, and incorporating overhead arm movements help elevate your heart rate and encourage healthy blood flow. These actions also support better posture and reduce strain on your cardiovascular system.
Essentrics is designed to be fun, restorative and energizing. The movements promote a sense of well-being while reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.
