A new study suggests that even brief bouts of physical activity, as little as 3 minutes a day, can significantly improve heart health and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and death. Researchers found that engaging in moderate-to-vigorous incidental activities, like walking the dog, taking the stairs, or doing household chores, can have similar benefits to structured exercise. The study highlighted that these short bursts of activity are not only efficient but also easy to incorporate into daily routines, making them an accessible way for people to improve their heart health without requiring intense workouts.
