| Aerobic Exercise |
| Aerobic exercise
is a non-stop exercise using large muscle groups, increasing
the heart rate long enough for a training effect upon the
lungs and the cardiovascular system. As for the time
duration, a good 40-45 minutes works the best. Aerobic
exercise is most effective when combined with a strength
training (resistance training) program along with a balanced
food intake. If you are trying to lose weight and burn fat here are some tips. The body starts to burn fat for fuel after about 20 minutes of nonstop aerobic work. If you are only moving 15-20 minutes you are not getting your body to the point of burning fat for fuel. It is highly suggested that the best results come from aerobic exercise performed directly after weight training. After weight training your body is prepared to burn fat. Your body is already pumped up from weight training and will immediately begin burning fat for fuel. This works for me. Some studies have shown that performing aerobic exercise when you get up first thing in the morning because your glycogen storage is low so you tend to burn more fat for fuel. This does not work for me because I have low blood sugar and I am hungry when I get up. We are all so different, so listen to your body. What you eat the day/night before will have a big effect on your workouts. |
