Exercise benefits in cardiovascular diseases: from mechanisms to clinical implementation
Open accessAbstract
There is a pandemic of physical inactivity that appears to parallel the widespread prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Yet, regular physical activity (PA) and exercise can play an important role not only in primary cardiovascular prevention but also in secondary prevention. This review discusses some of the main cardiovascular effects of PA/exercise and the mechanisms involved, including a healthier metabolic milieu with attenuation of systemic chronic inflammation, as well as adaptations at the vascular (antiatherogenic effects) and heart tissue (myocardial regeneration and cardioprotection) levels. The current evidence for safe implementation of PA and exercise in patients with CVD is also summarized.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This review summarizes epidemiological and mechanistic evidence that regular physical activity/exercise reduces cardiovascular disease risk and mortality in primary and secondary prevention, with dose-dependent benefits and multiple biological mechanisms. It also discusses controversies around high-volume endurance exercise, atrial fibrillation, coronary calcification, and the occupational physical activity paradox.
Key findings
- In primary prevention, meeting WHO recommendations for moderate or vigorous physical activity was associated with 19%–25% and 15%–31% lower CVD and all-cause mortality risk, respectively, in a 30-year follow-up of 116,221 adults; the highest quarter of total moderate-to-vigorous physical activity had 53% lower incident CVD risk, and each 2,000 daily steps was associated with 10% lower CVD incidence up to ∼10,000 steps/day.
- In secondary prevention, a 6-year follow-up of 131,558 CVD patients found 14% mortality risk reduction per 500 MET-min/week versus 7% in CVD-free referents; cardiac rehabilitation participation was associated with 32% lower mortality, and a Cochrane review of 23,430 CHD patients found exercise-based rehabilitation reduced mortality and improved quality of life.
- Regarding “too much” exercise, a meta-analysis of 35,920 athletes found 27% lower standardized mortality rate, and MVPA at 5,000 MET-min/week was associated with 27% lower CVD mortality than 750 MET-min/week; however, sports participation was associated with 64% higher atrial fibrillation risk, while no robust evidence was found for total or intense physical activity.
- Mechanistic evidence includes exercise-induced exerkines, vascular and endothelial improvements, myocardial regeneration, antiarrhythmogenic autonomic effects, and cardiac preconditioning; in obese mice, exercise training reduced myocardial infarction lesions by 67%, and each 1-MET increase in cardiorespiratory fitness was associated with 13% lower CVD mortality risk, with 51% lower risk at highest versus lowest fitness.
Methods
- Design: narrative review of epidemiological, clinical, and preclinical evidence on physical activity/exercise in cardiovascular disease prevention and mechanisms.
- Data or sample: no primary data were generated or analysed; the paper synthesizes cited cohort studies, meta-analyses, randomized controlled trials, and preclinical studies.
- Main analysis: narrative synthesis of dose-response associations, clinical outcomes, and proposed biological mechanisms, without a described systematic search or formal meta-analysis.
Limitations
- Stated: the paper reports that no data were generated or analysed for the manuscript; it notes controversy about high-volume endurance exercise and potential methodological limitations in atrial fibrillation/physical activity studies, mainly non-objective determination of atrial fibrillation or physical activity.
- Evident from the text: as a narrative review, it does not describe a systematic search strategy, formal risk-of-bias assessment, or quantitative pooling; conclusions rely heavily on observational and preclinical evidence, so causality is not established.

“a higher number of daily step counts, particularly if performed at high intensity (30/min) seems associated with a lower CVD incidence (-10% for each 2000 steps), at least up to ∼10 000 steps/day.5”

The Results (Cancer and CVD Incidence; page unavailable) associate more daily steps and higher peak-30 cadence with lower CVD incidence, and the Discussion says the association was observed up to approximately 10,000 steps per day. But the reported change for CVD incidence is −0.04 per 2,000 steps, not approximately −10%; −0.10 is reported for CVD mortality. The Methods (Step Count and Intensity; page unavailable) define peak-30 cadence as the average steps per minute during the 30 highest-cadence minutes, not an intensity of 30 steps per minute.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
