Individuals with cardiovascular diseaseshould pay attention to these safety tips when exercising in winter

(FWA 2026/01/23)A:The weather has become so cold recently, I’m a little concerned about going outside to exercise.

B:Actually, it’s even more important to exercise in winter. Research conducted overseas indicates that individuals with cardiovascular disease who engage in moderate exercise in winter benefit from enhanced immunity, reduction in the recurrence of ailments and improved mood.

A:Really? Then how do I exercise in a way that is safe?

B:Do stretches at home, walk upstairs, or go for a walk outdoors when the weather is good. However, there are still a few things you need to pay attention to:

First check the weather – If it is too cold or wet, do not force yourself to go out

Wear layers of clothing – This makes it easier to take off clothes if you start to sweat

Keep warm –  Remember to wear gloves,a scarf and thick socks

Be aware of hyperthermia – If you find yourself shaking or unable to speak clearly, then take a rest as soon as possible

Remember sun protection and stay hydrated – You can still be exposed to the sun’s rays and become dehydrated in winter

It is important to remain active in winter, exercise keeps the body warm and elevates the mood.
