 Choosing the right exercise
How do you know which activity is right for you? You should always choose an activity that fits your lifestyle, any physical limitations and of course that you enjoy. There are two types of exercise: aerobic and anaerobic.
Aerobic exercise
Aerobic exercises are those that help to reduce fat, these include walking, running, swimming and bicycling.
Aerobic exercise increases the heart rate and breathing becomes heavier.
After about 20 minutes of aerobic exercise, the body begins to use its stored fat as fuel,
hence the phrase "burning fat". Regular aerobic exercise raises your body's metabolism and
enables your body to use more calories, even when you are at rest.
Anaerobic exercises
Anaerobic exercises help you to develop stronger muscles. These exercises involve short bursts of force followed by periods of rest and include push-ups, crunches, pull-ups and weight lifting.
Anaerobic exercise does not burn fat like aerobic exercise, but helps to build muscle. An increase in muscle mass complements aerobic exercise by enabling you to use more calories.
