Answer:

true

Step-by-step explanation:

when you exercise, your heart rate goes up. this strengthens the heart muscle, meaning it will be able to pump the same amount of blood with smaller effort. that means regular cardio exercise that gets your heartrate up will lower your resting heart rate. the effect is greater the more often and intensely you exericse.
