But did you know that these examples of exercise, a form known as aerobics, are really important to our health?\u00a0 I\u2019m not talking about the aerobics with leotards and leg warmers from the 80s (but if that\u2019s really your thing, go for it!). Nowadays, \u2018aerobics\u2019 looks like going for a walk, spin class, power yoga, a group workout class – anything to get your heart pumping for an extended period of time. 10 minutes or more is what it takes, and it can be as low intensity as going for a long walk. \u00a0 <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]The benefit of participating in an aerobics program are immense.

Fat Loss<\/b><\/h5>\n<\/h2><\/div>

When you think about a fat loss, the first thing you think of might be a change in physical appearance.\u00a0 While that\u2019s true, it\u2019s not the only benefit. Excess fat within the body may cause narrowing of arteries, as well as, increased blood pressure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, fat loss doesn\u2019t only mean your body looking good, but also feeling good as well. <\/span>With fat loss, you decrease the risk of developing Coronary Artery Disease by improving the health of your cardiovascular system (heart).<\/span><\/p>\n

An example of a fat-burning aerobic exercise would be a low-intensity thirty minute walk.\u00a0 If that seems too hard for you, try taking two 15 minute walks in the same day.\u00a0 On the other hand, if that seems too easy, try extending your route, adding in a few minutes of running, or walking with 1lb hand weights to give yourself more of a challenge. \u00a0 Remember, the key here is time.\u00a0 Be sure your program increases in duration as you progress.\u00a0 If you are starting at 10 minutes of daily activity, try progressing to 20 minutes by adding an additional minute each day for 2 weeks.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”]\n

Our heart rate increases to meet the oxygen demands of our muscles. This form of exercise trains and strengthens our heart – our body\u2019s most important muscle!\u00a0 By regularly exercising the heart, it grows stronger and allows more blood flow per beat. Conditioned heart muscles (heart that has been trained through aerobics) will accomplish more with less effort, which decreases the \u201cwear and tear\u201d effect. This means we live a longer and healthier life!\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have ever taken any type of aerobics class or program, you will learn that over time your body becomes stronger. You will be able to do more for longer, while your feelings of fatigue will lessen. This is due to the fact that your endurance is better. You will even see a change in your daily activities. Certain tasks that used to take more effort and\u00a0 strength are now easier to complete.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” bg_image=”1257″ bg_position=”left top” bg_repeat=”no-repeat” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” width=”2\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”]
