CARDIO-TRAINING consists in practising an activity to elevate your heart rate, related to the main functions: Circulatory, respiratory. Activities include walking, running, cycling, swimming, rowing, hiking, mountaineering, etc. These activities can be practised in the gym using machines designed to reproduce the corresponding movement as closely as possible. CARDIO-TRAINING is the basis of the work to be carried out when you want to improve a somewhat weak physical condition or lose weight by increasing your metabolism.
It is important to know the maximum heart rate, since this figure governs the intensity of the effort required from the athlete to improve his endurance or resistance, make him lose weight or eliminate waste products after a difficult competition. CAUTION, to lose weight, you must not work too hard, but a heart rate of 135 - 150 depending on the age is sufficient to avoid consuming glycogen and optimise the use of fat as energy source... as long as you train for at least 40 minutes. If you increase your heart rate to 160 beats per minute or more, you are burning "PREMIUM GRADE", which will have no effect on the flab. What is the best cardio-training equipment?
