A recent study published in Cardiology has suggested that exercise benefits women more than men; conclusions are based on findings involving 400,000 survey respondents. Women who exercise regularly reduced their risk of early death by 24%, while men had only a 15% risk reduction. The benefits extended to protection from heart problems and strokes, further reducing the risk of fatal events by 36% for women and 14% for men. Notably, women saw a 24% reduction in mortality risk by engaging in moderate exercise for 300 minutes weekly, while men required 110 weekly minutes of vigorous workouts for a 19% reduction. The findings indicate that exercise recommendations should consider sex-based differences.
