The term cardiovascular is used for the heart (cardio) and blood vessels (vascular). Combined, they transport blood and oxygen throughout the body.
During endurance activities, having good cardiovascular health is critical for performance. It influences the capacity of your heart to pump blood as well as the efficiency with which your muscles utilize oxygen. Exercise such as jogging, for instance, serves to improve the functioning of the heart as well as strengthen it. It enhances the force of blood expelled with every beat, reduces resting pulse rate, as well as enhances overall endurance.
