But lets look at the definition of Aerobic Exercise and it's true benefits.....
Google “aerobic” or “cardio” and you’re likely to find a wide range of definitions for this physical activity, however, aerobic exercise is “activity in which the body’s large muscles move in a rhythmic manner for a sustained period of time.”
Basically, it’s movement that gets your heart rate up and makes you breathe harder; activities like jogging, brisk walking, swimming, bicycling, dancing and aerobics are all examples of aerobic exercise.
That’s what aerobic exercise is – but why do we need it?
Aerobic activity does your health a lot of good, including the following benefits:
- Improves cardiovascular health by strengthening the heart and lungs
- Aids in weight loss by burning calories
- Reduces stress
- Improves sleep
- Boosts mood
- Increases energy
- Helps control blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar
- Increases bone density
- Increases metabolism
- Boosts cognitive ability
- And last, but not least, improves quality of life
If you’re a healthy adult, 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity each week is the minimum recommendation Yes, it can be difficult to find the time if you’ve got a busy schedule, but your health depends on it and any is better than none.
