"Remember, staying active isn’t just about intense workouts — it’s about moving your body and having fun.” This is the advice from our new #WorldHeartDay ambassador, Bangladesh cricket star 🏏 Shakib Al Hasan, on how to USE ❤️ FOR ACTION! Here are a few ideas to get you started: 💚 Be more active every day – take the stairs, walk or cycle instead of driving. Playing, walking, housework, dancing – #EveryMoveCounts! 💚 Aim for 150-300 minutes of moderate-intensity or 75-150 minutes of vigorous-intensity physical activity throughout the week. 💚 On two or more days a week, you should also do some muscle-strengthening exercises involving all major muscle groups. 💚 Download an app or use a wearable device to keep track of your steps and progress. #WorldHeartDay #HeartYes #UseHeart #BeActive

An EU #CardiovascularHealth Plan is urgently needed to save lives, improve patient outcomes, and safeguard our workforce and economies. The status quo of CVD as the number one killer in Europe cannot be left unchallenged. Following the re-election this afternoon of Ursula von der Leyen as European Commission President for a second term, we are encouraged to see the commitment to focus on cardiovascular disease in the political guidelines for the 2024-2029 mandate. EACH partners stand ready to support! Together we must and can do better. #CVHealth4All Read more: https://lnkd.in/eBrSQSbh Our EACH Partners: European Society of Cardiology EFPIA - European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations COCIR European Atherosclerosis Society European Chronic Disease Alliance ECHDO European Heart Network (EHN) EKHA - European Kidney Health Alliance ERC European Resuscitation Council European Stroke Organisation European Society for Vascular Surgery EUCOPE - European Confederation of Pharmaceutical Entrepreneurs European Institute of Women's Health, CLG ESH European Society of Hypertension European Thrombosis and Haemostasis Alliance FH Europe Foundation MedTech Europe Global Heart Hub Stroke Alliance For Europe (SAFE) World Heart Federation
