The 29th of September is World Heart Day and it's all about beating cardiovascular disease.

Over 75% of CVD deaths occur in low- to middle-income countries, but access can be an issue anywhere. This day is a call to pay attention to CVD - the leading cause of death globally, and the second highest cause of death in South Africa.

Physical Inactivity is one of the main culprits for the development and progression of CVD, and as such, a long-term solution for managing and decreasing the risk of CVD is through regular physical activity participation. Registered Biokineticists are clinical exercise specialists who use evidence-based exercise prescriptions to assist you in preventing and managing heart disease through supervised physical activities.
