When you hear any word along with “Cardio”, you can guess that it is something related to the heart. Cardio fitness is no different. It is actually the body’s ability to supply oxygen and blood to the muscles. You use your cardiovascular system when you do any kind of physical activity. You can know it from the quickening of your pulse and the deep breaths. The efficiency of the cardiovascular system can be improved by regular physical training, such as walking, climbing stairs, bicycling, running, swimming, aerobics or workout regimes. These cardiovascular exercises are also called as “Cardio” in short.

Regular cardiovascular exercise increases the blood flow, which, in turn, has a positive effect on your mental processes. One also has to keep in mind that the number of red blood cells (RBC) increases when a person works out regularly. These RBCs play a key role in the transport of oxygen from the heart to other parts of the body.

When you begin a cardiovascular exercise program, set your goal first, and plan the steps according to it. Consult a dietician and get a proper diet plan chalked out for you before starting the exercise regime. For those who wish to improve their cardiovascular fitness in general, a 20 to 40 minute-exercise session, three or four times a week, is enough. If you want to gain weight, then, you don’t have to bother with any cardio. You can just relax. But a light cardio workout for 20 minutes, two times a week, will be good for your health. Gaining fat is always easy but losing it is really difficult. It goes without saying that one needs to work more for that. To lose fat, you have to work out 20 to 40 minutes, three to five times a week, for good results.

Another important thing is, monitor your heart’s health with a good Cardio Heart Rate Monitor while exercising. Cardiosport, Mio, Polar, Omron, Ekho, and Reebok are some of the leading manufacturers of heart rate monitors. Women’s Heart Rate Monitor is also becoming increasingly popular in the market today.
