Choose your weapon. The following aerobic exercises provide the means to begin our caloric burning phase. Several other great options include aquaerobics, step aerobics, low and high impact aerobics, dance aerobics, slide aerobics, boxing aerobics, or a new craze, spinning. After choosing a favorite form of exercise, you can now begin burning away the fat. The duration of exercise is a key point with which to spotlight.
Duration refers to time involved exercising.
ACSM recommends doing aerobic exercise twice weekly, a minimum of 20 minutes or more each session. I concur with ACSM's guidelines encouraging and challenge each of you to meet or even surpass them in a safe and effective manner. Not focusing on cardiovascular conditioning allows us to greatly vary the intensity level of our extended exercise. Exercise intensity must also be addressed. Intensity refers to effort put forward and the energy expended during the exercise.
