Cardio Exercise: Raises MetabolismExercise to Raise Metabolic RateA great way to boost the body's metabolism (the rate at which it burns calories while resting), is to perform a regular cardio-aerobic exercise program. Cardio-Aerobics: Faster MetabolismThe benefits of a faster metabolic rate include quicker weight reduction and fat loss. It also helps to protect the heart and maintain a healthy weight level in middle age. In addition, a regular Cardio workout helps maintain healthy blood glucose levels, as well as healthy cholesterol and blood pressure. Cardio- Aerobics: Calorie-BurningAbout 45 minutes of Cardio burns about 481 calories. In one year, this exercise routine uses up a total of 175,565 calories - about 50 pounds of body weight. Cardio-Aerobics and DietAs well as taking regular Cardio exercise, try to follow a healthy eating plan. All weight loss studies show that a nutritious calorie-controlled diet is essential for long term weight control. |
