Cardio
Cardio exercise is one type of physical activity that generally refers to aerobic exercise, which uses large muscle groups in continuous rhythmic motion to increase heart rate.
Cardio is a great way to improve your health and lose weight. There are many different types of cardio exercises, but the most common way to do cardio is by running or doing some form of aerobic exercise for a certain duration of time.
Generally, it is advisable to do low-impact cardio for longer periods of time at a lower intensity, while high-impact cardio should be done in shorter sessions with more intensity.
