Exercise is the key—
|
Cardiovascular (cardio or aerobic) exercise uses the large muscles in your body, such as your legs and buttocks, in a continuous activity, such as walking, running or bicycling.
The benefits of cardio activity include keeping heart, lungs and muscle groups healthy. Metabolism is also increased, which can boost fat burning. Even better—the body continues to burn calories at a higher level for hours after the exercise.
If you haven’t been active and want to start exercising, we suggest starting slowly. Walk briskly for five to 20 minutes to begin and slowly increase your time. You can also swim, bike or hike to get cardiovascular exercise.
Resistance training is activity that provides weight resistance to the muscles as they exercise. This can be accomplished with weight lifting, movement using thick bands or by using body weight while climbing, walking or doing push-ups. Resistance builds and strengthens the muscles and tendons that are engaged in resistance exercise; and it also helps to strengthen bones.
To begin, it’s a good idea to go to a class or hire a trainer to help you learn the proper weight lifting techniques, warm-ups and cool-down routines. Learning the proper way to lift weights helps you avoid injury.
Resistance training helps raise your metabolism because the more muscle you have, the more fat you burn.
If you haven’t already, it’s a good idea to incorporate regular exercise in your activities to help improve the benefits you’ll receive from your Total Health and Wellness System™.
