🏈❀️ Football Season = Unexpected Heart Benefits

Cheering, pacing, celebrating touchdowns may actually get your heart moving more than you think. Excitement and engagement activate the body, increasing circulation, boosting mood, and giving the heart a healthy workout of its own.

Game day energy increases pulse
Cheering and standing adds movement
Emotional highs release feel-good endorphins
Shared moments strengthen social connection

And connection itself is heart-healthy πŸ’“

Make football even better for your heart with a few simple choices:

πŸ₯— Add some balanced snack options
🚢 Move or stretch during commercial breaks
πŸ’§ Stay hydrated throughout the game
πŸ™Œ Watch with family or friends to boost emotional wellbeing

Football brings movement, excitement, and community, all things your heart thrives on.

So tune in, cheer loud, enjoy the season with heart in mind. 🏈
