Ways to improve cardiovascular health?

[Nexom]

I'm looking to improve my cardiovascular health, basically how well the heart, blood vessels & lungs work in order to deliver oxygen and nutrients in the body.

My goal is to lower my RHR, have better blood flow and stamina as well as faster recovery from any type of exercise.

I've also been dealing with some chronic inflammation with unknown causes, so this is one of the steps I'm taking towards fixing that issue.
You can find my thread about that separate issue here: https://looksmax.org/threads/hscrp-low-grade-inflammation-looks-my-case-tests-hypotheses.1778656/

As far as I'm aware, this could bring a plethora of other benefits when it comes to looks, such as: lowering bloat/puffiness, indirectly better fat metabolism as well as better insulin sensitivity, and a healthier skin tone as opposed to the more pale/tired look you have when having poor circulation.

Some of my current stats:
- RHR: currently sitting at around ~79-89 bpm (it's horrible)
- With nicotine, but still at rest: it sits at around 95-105
- Blood pressure: has always been good at 120/70 over hundreds of measurements
- VO2 max: haven't ever tested this

Current habits and what could be affecting it:
- Averaging 2000 steps/day in weekdays, and ~10,000 during the week-end
- Minimal weightlifting in the past 6 months, probably ~1.5-2 workouts/week
- BMI ~21.5
- Sleep isn't the best, but could be much worse
- Low to medium stress levels
- Around 75-100mg/day nicotine from pouches (tapering)

Plans to be implemented:
- Going from 2k to 5-10k steps a day
- Getting in more workout, maybe 3-4/week
- Maintaining BMI
- Improving sleep length & quality
- Lowering & quitting nicotine usage

So, the questions would be:
1) If you'd want to improve your cardiovascular health over the next 3-6 months with least possible side effects, how would you approach this?
2) What would be your priorities in this situation? Do you think Zone 2 cardio is a good way to lower RHR long-term?
3) Any feedback on my current plan or useful tips or tricks, maybe some personal experiences regarding cardio health you'd like to share?

I'm pretty sure there should be ways to achieve this more optimally or even faster than the traditional ways, and I'm willing to maintain it once I get to a good result, but I'm also happy to do it the conventional way. As of right now, I don't have a specific goal in mind other than just getting to a point in which I can physically feel like it has improved. I'm aware that nicotine probably is one of the main culprits here and I'm already lowering its usage, but I'm interested in cardio capacity nonetheless.

Zone 2 cardio, also swimming and cycling are fun activities, not like running

 

[tunisianropemaxxer]

Tbh idk much about the subject but cardio and good health.
Also avoiding nicotine as it tightens blood vesells

I mean some higher intensity cardio always works, and whats your bf? Gettring to like 12% is a classic and works

 

[Finnishmogger]

Start going to the sauna

 

[Nexom]

Zone 2 cardio, also swimming and cycling are fun activities, not like running

I've got a treadmill so I'm gonna give it a shot there to begin with.

morning run

Why morning? Feels very arbitrary

I mean some higher intensity cardio always works, and whats your bf? Gettring to like 12% is a classic and works

Not sure right now, will have to check. Good point though

 

[magnus3773]

I've got a treadmill so I'm gonna give it a shot there to begin with.

I personally despise the feeling of running, cycling in nature with music in is way more sustainable and fun, but you could definitely use the treadmill to walk while doing sth else.

 

[rotation]

nicotine is probably what is increasing your RHR due to it increasing sympathetic tone

cardio + quitting nicotine will lower inflammation well

zone 2 cardio works, and low intensity cardio daily

a little bit of sauna can help with vascular function too

I agree with the zone 2 cardio, and you are already on a good path but we must know your bf%, also have you checked your HDL LDL?

You could do ezetimibe to improve HDL and LDL and also niacin and lower them, thus decreasing your bp.
and if you hod water you could do 1-2x per week diazide, hydrochlorothiazide is the generic name I think

You could fix your sleep by making sure you stop eating 4 hours before bed, haven't done nicotin 30min before bed, and consider using a beta blocker I prefer nebivolol since it hinders performance very little and also has a long half-life, so when you sleep you'll be even better(heart rate-wise)

Also what will improve your cardio capacity would by a sulbutamol inhailer but you must be very catious like don't use it like a mad man and not for a long period of time utilize it as an extra boost to do cardio easier, don't depend on it

P.S. Consider switching the forms of cardio like do post workout cycling insdead of going home or doing regular walking or running

Haven't measured it but since it's being requested, I'd say around 14-15% currently

Start going to the sauna

Interesting, didn't think about this. Could you guys elaborate on the sauna thing, or do you have a good information source?

sauna will help with the limphatic drainage and help you sweat thus aiding in excretion of toxic waste and lowering the bp because of the water loss

may as well ask here
would cialis be beneficial?

I personally despise the feeling of running, cycling in nature with music in is way more sustainable and fun, but you could definitely use the treadmill to walk while doing sth else.

Would go in nature but there's tons of construction in the area and will be for a while... so only treadmill for now.

nicotine is probably what is increasing your RHR due to it increasing sympathetic tone

cardio + quitting nicotine will lower inflammation well

zone 2 cardio works, and low intensity cardio daily

Will decrease nicotine over the next few months until I quit it completely, I know there are some procedures like photobiomodulation when it comes to quitting smoking so I'm looking into that as well.

 

[Finnishmogger]

Interesting, didn't think about this. Could you guys elaborate on the sauna thing, or do you have a good information source?

I go to the sauna at least every week and there’s lots of studies on it improving cardiovascular health. I think it also decreases your mortality rate 40% from all causes. Also it feels incredibly nice.

 

[Nexom]

You could do ezetimibe to improve HDL and LDL and also niacin and lower them, thus decreasing your bp.
and if you hod water you could do 1-2x per week diazide, hydrochlorothiazide is the generic name I think

In the thread I linked, you can find my latest results for HDL/LDL if you scroll down to the "LIPIDS / CARDIOVASCULAR" section.
I'll be looking into the other suggestions for sure.

You could fix your sleep by making sure you stop eating 4 hours before bed, haven't done nicotin 30min before bed, and consider using a beta blocker I prefer nebivolol since it hinders performance very little and also has a long half-life, so when you sleep you'll be even better(heart rate-wise)

I have tried nebivolol and bisoprolol but they've caused heart palpitations for some reason. I'll follow the other advices here.

Also what will improve your cardio capacity would by a sulbutamol inhailer but you must be very catious like don't use it like a mad man and not for a long period of time utilize it as an extra boost to do cardio easier, don't depend on it

Could you elaborate a bit on the sulbutamol?

P.S. Consider switching the forms of cardio like do post workout cycling insdead of going home or doing regular walking or running

Cannot do cycling right now, do you think there's any other forms of "switching" form?

I assume you where on a massive amount of nicotine and probably that's why you got the palputations since you have 2 different things trying to compete for the same or similar receptors

sulbutamol is like clen it was made for asthma it does bind to the beta receptors and does exactly the oppisate of a beta blocker so it's not smart to use them together but the thing is that sulbutamol has a very short half life, and you could utilize it to make cardio more pleasant and get more out of it at least in kcal expenditure and cardio sustain wise

A good form of cardio is steps, unless you have knee problems, then idk

One more thing that I forgot to mention was the use of gw aka cardarin I put a friend on and bro lost weight had easier time cutting and was full of energy (also did a lot of IQOS smoking and snus like MF hit everything under the sun to get nicotine)

sure you could do 5mg daily with no prob, unless your bp is 100 and 57 then you might run into a prob

Tadalafil is one of my favorite substances of all time, unfortunately I'm a bit of an outlier and still get some lower back pain when using it consistently even at lower doses. I have telmisartan and reta at hand, but I was moreso looking for something on the more natural side, or at least if it's gonna be a substance then something that could help me get to that point, not just as a band-aid solution. Really appreciated either way!

you could improve the back pumps by taking taurin I learned that because I wanted to learn how to fix backpumps from dbol and yet years after I tried 30mg of dbol and 50 of anadrol as pre and got very minimal backpump and it was probably because it was back day lol

You know what? Seems like you might be spot on here. Never thought about this for some reason, lol. Not gonna try any beta blockers anytime soon while I'm lowering/quitting nicotine. I wonder how Clonidine would perform in this scenario, but then again looking for some long-term 'solutions' (will probably rely on conventional ways to fix this but it's worth giving it a shot).

sulbutamol is like clen it was made for asthma it does bind to the beta receptors and does exactly the oppisate of a beta blocker so it's not smart to use them together but the thing is that sulbutamol has a very short half life, and you could utilize it to make cardio more pleasant and get more out of it at least in kcal expenditure and cardio sustain wise

Thanks! Sounds interesting, will definitely note it down to have a closer look.

you could watch the videos of vigorous steve on youtube about salbutamol also first time hearing about Clonidine seem intering at first glance I'll take a look this remind me of what valdoxan is for the other SSRI just a better way to come off and quit them maybe look into valdoxan from leo and longevity he has a playlist I bet you could find some interesting stuff there

- With nicotine, but still at rest: it sits at around 95-105
- Blood pressure: has always been good at 120/70 over hundreds of measurements
- VO2 max: haven't ever tested this

Current habits and what could be affecting it:
- Averaging 2000 steps/day in weekdays, and ~10,000 during the week-end
- Minimal weightlifting in the past 6 months, probably ~1.5-2 workouts/week

Plans to be implemented:

3) Any feedback on my current plan or useful tips or tricks, maybe some personal experiences regarding cardio health you'd like to share?

afaik best way to ascend cvs is through cardio and pharma. check your cholesterol; if ldl is high - jump on 10mg ezetimibe daily for starters. additionally, jump on 5mg cialis daily, im sure youve heard of how good it is for you, especially including your cvs. also, 1000mg nac a day, as it has a shit ton of benefits, one of which is it being a very good antioxidant, and antioxidants are very good for reducing systemic inflammation. you can experiment with 25mg eplerenone daily for the same purpose, plus it will make you not bloat from like anything you eat, since you did mention wanting to look less puffy. you can improve your sleep quality and length by using 2000mg l-citrulline, 300mg magnesium and 2.5mg melatonin before bed, as well as sleeping in total darkness, silence, with no phone, and at ever so slightly below room temp. for cardio, all i know is that you need to do it consistently. look into optimal routines yourself. and yeah, walking daily BESIDES intense cardio is really good for you as well. for rhr, look into telmisartan and nebivolol.

i also randomly just got an idea that a humidifier might mog for sleep quality, or at least it sounds like it
