Recent findings show that regular cardio -- and only moderate amounts at that -- is more effective than going under the knife when it comes to fixing your struggling ticker. And while logging a few hours on the treadmill might seem a bit tedious, surely it's better than going into the hospital for a risky operation?

Of course, when it comes to matters of the heart, talk to your doctor, but do consider shedding a bit of sweat for the sake of your heart health.
