Exercising for Healthy Veins👍💯
🏃♀️🏊🚴♀️🚶🏻
👉We all know the value of movement and maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle.
👉When it comes to the health of our veins and circulation, regular exercise can promote a healthy blood flow and prevent weight gain.
👉Weight gain puts added stress on our veins and valves. This forces our veins to work much harder to keep blood flowing.
👉Being overweight or living with obesity can also weaken the heart muscles and reduce the flow of oxygenated blood❤️
👉This can contribute to a poor circulatory system and potentially lead to more serious health conditions.
👉Exercise promotes healthy veins by stimulating the flow of blood. A healthy blood flow is necessary for our bodies to function – so let’s get moving together👍💯
👉Even simple, repetitive movements can benefit health and wellbeing. The important thing to remember is to start and motivate yourself to do regular movements often.
How Exercise Helps the Veins❓
👉Exercise causes constant contraction of the muscles in the legs. The action of muscle contraction pushes on the veins to help move blood back toward the heart, improving circulation.
👉This helps with the pooling of blood and in turn can improve the symptoms of swelling and cramping.
👉Exercises that support vein health include:
🚶♀️walking
🚴♀️biking
🏊swimming
👉These exercises help to contract and strengthen the calf muscle to help push blood through the veins.
👉You can also include calf raises and thigh raises as strengthening resistance exercises for muscle strength.
