A single exercise session increases heart rate, blood flow, and oxygen demand. This is the acute response.
Chronic training leads to structural and functional changes — improved stroke volume, lower resting heart rate, reduced blood pressure, and enhanced endothelial function.
Long-term exercise also reduces systemic inflammation and improves autonomic balance, lowering arrhythmia risk and improving stress resilience.
These adaptations protect against coronary artery disease, hypertension, and metabolic syndrome.
