Watching Rams Games: Cardio, or Harmful Stress

I wear an Oura smart ring. It has empirically confirmed that my heart rate increases during most Rams games.

Yesterday, it went up to around 140-150 in the most tense moments. That's comparable to a reasonably strenuous workout on a treadmill or elliptical for me.

So... good cardio workout, or harmful stress.

I'm thinking football should be more relaxing.
