Cardio Benefits:

Ok, Cardio has more purposes than just burning fat:

It Increases your lung capacity, it will make you breath much better.

It helps you sleep better than before.

It helps you feel good about yourself.

It helps you burn f at and Calories fast; and even faster with just a proper diet.*

It will help you reduce any stress you have.

Cardio will reduce the risk of you having a heart attack, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, etc.

Your heart will be able to work better because cardio will make it strong so it doesn t have to pump blood as hard as it had to before. Remember your heart is a muscle too.

If you lift weights, then Cardio is a must, it will cut your
muscles, make you more defined and will increase your stamina and endurance. The heart will be able to pump more blood into your muscles and you'll recover faster from each workout.

* Remember that in order to l ose f at by cardio you must follow a proper diet; otherwise the f at you just lose with your cardio activity will be regained.

Cardio Routine:

This is an example of what you can do for a routine, and it doesn't necessarily have to be like this, remember to do what you like for cardio exercises, so here it is for one week, change the routine as you please:

Monday: Low Intensity, Long Duration Cardio (walking, stationary bicycle, etc). 20 Min.

Tuesday: Low Intensity, Long Duration Cardio. 30 Min.

Wednesday: Medium Intensity, Medium Duration (running, swimming, etc.) 10 Min.

Thursday: Day off. (You can do crunches, 20-50 to start getting your abs in shape).

Friday: Low Intensity, Long Duration Cardio. 30 Min.

Saturday: Day off.

Sunday: High Intensity, Short Duration (Stationary bike,
sprinting, etc), 5 Minutes.
