Cardiovascular exercise is a huge contributor (for the better) to living longer, stronger, and healthier. But it’s not always easy to figure out how hard you should be working out. And how do you know the best way to plan out your schedule to meet your goals and have it fit into your calendar.
Tune in to this episode of The Longevity Gym, and hear Pam Strand, personal trainer, address these issues and demystify cardiovascular exercise.
Pam discusses:
- How cardiovascular exercise benefits your body and what parts of the body become healthier when you do your cardio training.
- How your vital signs improve
- How cardio makes you feel better and have more energy for life
- What the important guidelines are for how much and how intense
- A simple planning guideline that makes it a breeze to figure out what to do fit this type of exercise into your schedule and your life.
- What to do if you are a beginner or getting back into exercise after time off
