Is walking good for heart palpitations during perimenopause?

Exercise

Walking can be helpful for managing heart palpitations during perimenopause. Exercise influences hormone levels, neurotransmitter balance, inflammation, and sleep quality, all of which play a role in heart palpitations.

The key with walking for heart palpitations is matching the intensity to your current state. On days when heart palpitations is more severe, a gentler approach to walking may be more beneficial than pushing hard. On better days, you can increase the challenge.

Walking specifically may help with heart palpitations through improved circulation, endorphin release, stress hormone regulation, and the natural anti-inflammatory effects of movement. Consistency matters more than intensity. Regular walking, even at lower intensity, tends to produce better results for heart palpitations than occasional intense sessions.

PeriPlan's day-type system adapts your workout recommendations based on how you feel, so your walking sessions are always matched to your readiness level.
