One of the
most important parts of a healthy life style is aerobic exercise. Adding aerobic
exercise to your day helps improve your health, prevent disease and lose
weight. Choose exercise program you enjoy doing and be consistent with it to
reap the positive benefits of exercise to your health.
Adding aerobic
exercise to your daily routine will help you stay motivated and focused. To achieve
this and have fun, find a good selection of exercise types you enjoy that will
keep you away from boredom.
For any
aerobic exercise to be considered beneficial and effective, it must increase
your heart rate for twenty minutes or more. You can begin with the following
forms of exercise;
·
Brisk
Walking – You can include brisk walking to your exercise as long as it can
increase your heart rate and you can sustain it for twenty minutes or more. You
can increase to jogging as your fitness level increases.
·
Running
– This will definitely get your heart rate up to aerobic level. However it is
not easy for some people due to their fitness level and health. Starting slowly
is the best way to overcome this huddle.
·
Skipping
– I love skipping because you engage all the major muscle groups when skipping.
Taking about 100 – 300 hundred skips within three minutes or less will get your
heart racing.
For you to
gain all the health benefits of exercise, consistency must be your watch word. Heart
disease, diabetes, obesity and lots more respond positively well to the
introduction of exercise.
Aerobic exercise
is a great way to increase your energy level. Exercise along with eating a
healthy diet is the secret of a youthful look. It can help you feel and look
younger for a longer period of time. Remember it is never too late to get
started on your exercise routine. Please don’t forget to consult your doctor
before starting any exercise program.
