Hook:
The way to fitness is not a simple one, especially not within your body.
Fitness requires exercise and exercise requires oxygen, and nutrients to the muscles.
The cardiovascular system is the means of which oxygen and nutrients travel to the muscles.
The more efficient that oxygen distribution in your body is, the more fit you are, which means that your heart is effectively delivering oxygen throughout your body.
When you are fit, your body can move more oxygen per pump than if you were not physically active.

Not too much. I know it has got something to do with heart rate (when you run, count your heart beat, compare when you are on relax mode) I know it has got something to do with the connection of heart and veins.
2)Do you know how to monitor your heart rate and why it is important?
I've heard of the 'electronic gadget' you can rely on when measuring heart rate, never use it before. During my Physical Edu lesson, usually count it manually per minute
3)What does the public need to know about cardiovascular disease and prevention?
Probably the main disease (e.g cardiac problems) and the symptoms one will faced. Prevention on what needs to be done in daily basis.
4)What do you typically do for cardiovascular activity each week?
Swimming or running
5)Do you know how to improve your cardiovascular health through physical activity? I know by doing regular exercise, you can improve it.

    * Calculate the heart rate, using the rapid rate calculation (counting the number of R waves in a 6-second strip and multiplying by 10 to calculate the heart rate per minute), for regular or irregular rhythms. For a regular rhythm, you can also use the precise rate calculation: Count the number of small squares between two consecutive R waves, and divide this number into 1,500 (the number of small squares in a 1-minute rhythm strip) to obtain the heart rate in beats per minute. Report the atrial and ventricular rates…

    The subject’s heart rate shows a steady heart rate of 68 at rest, however after one minute of exercise it has increased by 8 beats per minute. This shows that the pulse rate and flow of blood has increased around the body during the first minute of exercise because the body is pumping blood around the body faster. After 2 and 3 minutes of exercise the heart rate becomes steadier as there is an equal amount of an increase of 4 beats per minute between them. This shows that the body has adjusted to the rate of exercise.…
