Cardio Exercise is essentially any movement that increases a person’s heart rate to improve the body’s oxygen flow. If your goal is to lose weight, cardiovascular workouts burn more calories than most other exercise routines.

Identifying the types of activities you enjoy is the first step in selecting the best cardio workout for you. Try several different activities to find the one that you enjoy most.
