Some experts say that the best way to achieve a healthy heart is to do
some form of aerobic activity at a certain pace for 30 minutes at least four times a week.
Here is a quick rundown of some of the most underrated but highly effective
forms of aerobic activity that you can look into as you explore your workout options:
Not exact matches
Cardio (short for «cardiovascular training») is a
form of aerobic exercise (as opposed to anaerobic,) and includes both «steady - state»
activities — think running, biking or swimming at a steady pace — and high - intensity
activity like HIIT training or Tabata workouts (which can ALSO be done while you're running, biking or swimming, but also in other ways which I'll talk more in a bit...).
Good
forms of aerobic exercise are: stationary bike, jogging (this can also be done on a treadmill), fast walking (also can be done on a treadmill), stair stepper, elliptical machine, rowing machine, sets
of sprinting, running, or any other
form of cardiovascular
activity that would raise your heartbeat to the fat burning zone.
While
aerobic exercise (e.g., walking, running or riding a bike) is a tried - and - true
form of exercise, any
activity that gets your heart rate up is beneficial.
Whether it's karate, kickboxing, or the standard
form of boxing, martial arts are a fantastic mix
of aerobic and anaerobic
activity.
