    Aerobics refers to how the body uses oxygen during exercise to meet energy demands. Aerobic exercise includes rhythmic activities like walking, jogging, cycling, or dancing that elevate the heart rate for at least 10 minutes. It strengthens the heart and lungs. Benefits include improved circulation, increased energy and endurance, reduced risk of diseases, weight control, and stress relief.

    Aerobics

    Aerobic
     refers to how your body uses oxygen to sufficiently meet energy demands during
    exercise.
     is a form of physical exercise that combines rhythmic aerobic
    exercise with stretching and strength training routines with the goal of improving all
    elements of fitness (flexibility, muscular strength, and cardio-vascular fitness).

    Aerobics Exercise
     is any physical activity that makes you sweat, causes you to breathe harder, and gets
    your heart beating faster than at rest.
     It strengthens your heart and lungs and trains your cardiovascular system to manage
    and deliver oxygen more quickly and efficiently throughout your body.
     Aerobic exercise uses your large muscle groups, is rhythmic in nature, and can be
    maintained continuously for at least 10 minutes.

    Benefits of Aerobics Exercise

     Improves your circulation and helps your body use oxygen better
     Increases energy
     Increases endurance, which means you can workout longer without getting tired
     Helps reduce the risk of developing heart disease
     Helps reduce the risk of developing diabetes
     Helps reduce body fat
     Helps you reach and maintain a healthy weight
     Helps reduce stress, tension, anxiety, and depression
     Improves sleep

    Examples of Aerobic Exercise

    Physical activity such as walking, jogging, indoor cycling, or aerobic dancing are all examples of
    aerobic exercise that strengthen the heart and lungs, therefore improving your body's
    utilization of oxygen. For general health, aim for a 30-minute workout (or three 10-minute
    workouts per day) three to five days a week at moderate intensity.

    Moderate intensity refers to an activity that will increase your breathing and get your heart
    beating fast. You should be able to talk with ease during moderate intensity workouts, though
    trying to sing would be more challenging,For weight loss, gradually work up to 45 minutes or
    longer at moderate to vigorous intensity five to six days a week, allowing for at least one day of
    rest a week.
    Vigorous intensity refers to an activity that will have your heart beating quite a bit more than
    moderate intensity workouts, and your breathing will be harder so saying more than a few
    words will be difficult.

    Walking is a great moderate intensity aerobic exercise. The beauty of walking is that it is easy
    to do with minimal costs. All you need is a good pair of walking shoes, comfortable clothing,
    and places to walk: for example hiking trails, around your neighborhood, and on rainy days, you
    can take your walk indoors and use a treadmill.
