Cardio Options

The ways in which aerobic exercise can improve and lengthen your life are well documented. Regular exercise promotes lean body mass while burning fat, improving digestion and the body's ability to eliminate toxins. Studies have shown that exercise also has the power to increase feelings of well-being and reduce depression. According to a report from a 1996 Aerobics Center study, people who are moderately physically fit, (even smokers with high blood pressure and high cholesterol), outlive nonsmokers who are healthy but inactive. Just 20 minutes a day of sustained aerobic activity can lower blood pressure and strengthen heart function.
