When it comes to strengthening your heart, here are three ways you can be as proactive as a pro athlete.

According to a recent study of nearly 800 professional athletes diagnosed with Covid-19, less than 1% developed cardiac injury. This is great news in the sports world, considering that early incidences of heart inflammation in athletes, like the case of Boston Red Sox pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez last summer, sparked worry that contracting the coronavirus carried a potentially career-ending risk of cardiac injury. The results of this latest study, published in JAMA Cardiology, foster optimism that there is far less cause for concern when it comes to professional athletes.
