Beat Cardiovascular Disease: Splash Around And Cool Down

Don't let rising temps keep you from moving. Instead, relocate your exercise regimen to a cooler locale - like your local water park. A 20-minute swim against the current in the wave pool will get your heart rate up without wearing you down. And don't overlook the simple stress relief a water slide can provide. The climb up a particularly steep slope will have your heart racing, and the slide down will allow for a cooling release. Walk the whole park, make frequent stops to cool off, and - most importantly - let yourself play.
