Heart health doesn’t have to be complicated.
“Heart Club is fantastic! It is user friendly and makes it easy to track my daily steps.” – Jen R.
Improve your heart health by doing just one thing.
Walk! Walking two miles a day is as good as spending 30 minutes sweating in the gym. This is true even if you walk at a leisurely pace. (Distance matters, not speed.)
Heart Club is developed by a Mayo Clinic trained cardiologist.
Track your steps with Heart Club, the heart health app developed by a cardiologist who trained at the Mayo Clinic. Dr. Herbert Semler has dedicated his 50-year career to helping people prevent heart attack and stroke, and now you can follow his expert guidance with this easy-to-use app.
Get it FREE on the Apple App Store and Google Play.
Heart Club keeps it simple with just two main functions:
1. Track your steps
2. Log your blood pressure
No bloated features, complicated menus, or overwhelming lists of tasks. Only two clear, straightforward actions that will set you on a new course towards heart health.
You can even connect an Omron heart monitor to log your BP automatically. (Get 20% off on the Heart Club store.)
The Heart Club app runs in the background, so you don’t even have to remember to turn it on. It tracks your steps all day.
How does walking help hypertension?
Physical activity, including walking, strengthens your heart. When your heart is strong, it can pump blood more efficiently, which softens the pressure on your arteries. The result? Lower blood pressure!
People who walk even 30 minutes a day are 35% less likely to have a heart attack or stroke.
If you track your steps, you’ll walk more.
Just the act of tracking your steps makes you likely to walk more, regardless of your specific goals. Seeing your steps add up every day is motivation by itself, so you keep walking.
Lower your stress in two ways.
Don’t spend so much time worrying about your risk of stroke or heart attack—you can significantly reduce your risk just by walking more. If you walk every day, you can feel relieved that you’re making a big difference in your heart health.
Plus, walking decreases stress!
Walking: A simple activity with complex benefits.
You don’t have to run a marathon, and you don’t have to do it all at once. Try a mile in the morning and a mile in the afternoon. Bring a friend and chat along the way, or try listening to a podcast or an audiobook.
The more steps you get in, the more you lower your risk—regardless of your age, gender, or race.
Walking has other benefits, too. By walking, you can:
- Lose weight (the app even tracks your calories burned, along with your steps)
- Reduce your blood pressure
- Reduce your blood cholesterol
- Lower your blood sugar
- Reduce your chance of bone fractures
- Reduce your risk of osteoporosis
- Reduce your risk of some cancers
- Prevent or control diabetes
- Reduce your risk of falls
- Improve your sleep
- Improve your mood and mental health
