Cardio Training:
Cardiovascular exercise is basically a fat burning exercise that increases your heart rate 60 to 85 percent of your regular rate. A cardiovascular exercise includes: fast walking, running, biking, stair climbing, aerobics, elliptical training, and sprinting. An easy way to calculate your desirable heart rate to reach while exercising is as follows
For women:
Desirable hearth rate = 220 - Age
For men: Desirable hearth rate = 226 - Age So a 30 year old woman has to have heart rate of 190 for the next five years (!), and a man at the same age should go up to 196.
Pros of Cardiovascular training:
- A good way to burn calories and lose weight
- Increases your lung capacity
- Reduces the risk of having high cholesterol, heart attack, high blood pressure, and diabetes
- Increases your metabolic rate
Cons of Cardiovascular training:
- If not performed properly may cause injuries
- May have an impact on the knees
- It is easier for our bodies to get used to, so it requires a constant change in your exercise routine is
