Project Abstract

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases continue to be a leading cause of mortality worldwide, highlighting the importance of preventive measures to maintain heart health. Exercise has long been recognized as a key factor in promoting cardiovascular health, with numerous studies demonstrating its positive effects on various aspects of heart function. This research project aims to investigate the impact of exercise on cardiovascular health in young adults, a demographic group that is increasingly susceptible to the early development of cardiovascular risk factors. The study will begin with a comprehensive literature review to explore the existing knowledge on the relationship between exercise and cardiovascular health. This review will highlight key findings from previous studies, identify gaps in current research, and provide a theoretical framework for the research methodology. The research methodology will involve a longitudinal study design, tracking a cohort of young adults over a specified period to assess the effects of different exercise regimens on cardiovascular parameters such as blood pressure, heart rate, cholesterol levels, and overall cardiovascular fitness. Data will be collected through a combination of physical assessments, self-reported exercise habits, and medical history questionnaires. The findings from the study will be analyzed and discussed in detail in Chapter Four, focusing on the specific impact of exercise on cardiovascular health outcomes in young adults. The results will be interpreted in the context of the existing literature, identifying any discrepancies or novel findings that contribute to the understanding of exercise as a preventive measure for cardiovascular diseases. In conclusion, this research project will provide valuable insights into the role of exercise in maintaining cardiovascular health in young adults. By identifying the specific benefits of different types and intensities of exercise on heart function, this study aims to inform public health interventions and individual lifestyle choices to reduce the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases later in life. The findings will contribute to the growing body of knowledge on the importance of regular physical activity for overall health and well-being, especially in younger populations where preventive measures can have a significant long-term impact on heart health.
