  10. Zone 2 Cardio

    4.5 /10 for nerve regeneration 8.3/10 overall Strong recommend Cardiovascular

    Aerobic exercise may support nerve health indirectly through glucose control, blood flow, and neurotrophic signaling. Direct human evidence for nerve regeneration from Zone 2 specifically is limited, so this remains an exploratory…
