Cardiovascular training, also known as aerobic exercise, involves activities that increase your heart rate and improve the efficiency of your heart and lungs. Common forms include running, cycling, swimming, and brisk walking. This type of training helps enhance endurance, burn calories, and promote overall cardiovascular health.
Engaging in regular cardiovascular training can reduce the risk of heart disease, lower blood pressure, and improve cholesterol levels. It is recommended to aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes of high-intensity aerobic exercise each week to reap these health benefits.
