Workouts
The workout must be suitably light, but of
long duration. Aerobic exercise is based on
improving the body's maximum oxygen uptake,
which in turn improves endurance and fitness.
You should perspire, but you should not get out
of breath during the workout.
To reach and maintain a basic fitness level,
exercise at least three times a week, 30 minutes
at a time. Increase the number of exercise
sessions to improve your fitness level. It is
worthwhile to combine regular exercise with
a healthy diet. A person committed to dieting
should exercise daily, at first 30 minutes or
less at a time, gradually increasing the daily
workout time to one hour. Start your workout
at low speed and low resistance to prevent the
cardiovascular system from being subjected to
excessive strain.
As the fitness level improves, speed and
resistance can be increased gradually. The
efficiency of your exercise can be measured by
monitoring your heart rate and your pulse rate.
