Heart Health & Exercise: What Sports Cardiology Can Teach Us

Dr. Eve Glazier talks with Ali Nsair, MD, director of the Heart Transplantation and Mechanical Circulatory Support Program and the UCLA Sports Cardiology program at UCLA Health, about what your heart is actually doing during exercise and recovery, and how to tell the difference between normal strain and signs that something may be wrong. Drawing on sports cardiology, they explore how fitness recovery and modern heart care can help people better understand their bodies, train smarter, and know when it's time to seek medical care.
