AEROBIC EXERCISE
Aerobic exercise is any sustained activity that sends oxygen to your muscles via your heart and lungs. Aerobic
exercise improves the fitness of your lungs and heart − your body’s most important muscle. Aerobic exercise fitness is
promoted by any activity that uses your large muscles (arms, legs, or buttocks, for example). Your heart beats quickly
and you breathe deeply. An aerobic exercise should form part of your entire exercise routine.
WEIGHT TRAINING
Along with aerobic exercising which helps get rid of and keep off the excess fat that our bodies can store, weight
training is an essential part of the exercise routine process. Weight training helps tone, build and strengthen muscle.
If you are working above your target zone, you may want to do a lesser amount of reps. Always consult your
physician before beginning any exercise program.
