Cardio Exercise Do It In A Safe Manner
Exercise is extremely important for weight loss; however, it is important to approach your exercise program using the tools that are available to insure that you get the benefits of exercise without doing damage to yourself. You must exercise within safe parameters and know the boundaries of your heart’s limits. To get the best results you need to exercise your heart below its maximum heart rate. To establish your maximum heart rate: Men need to subtract your age from 220 220 –your age = maximum heart rate or men Women need to subtract your age from 226 226-your age = maximum heart rate for women Depending upon your exercise program you probably will be exercising at 75% to 90% of your maximum heart rate. Most experts agree that it is best to stay within the 75% to 85% range to get the maximum benefit. To insure that you do not exceed your maximum heart rate I recommend using a heart monitor. They are a cheap investment and will help you stay within a safe exercising range. When you are performing your different exercise routines make a habit of periodically checking the monitor to insure you are within the safe range. Most monitors have an alarm system that you can set to your designated range but I prefer to visually check my monitor periodically in case I missed hearing a warning sign. Exceeding your maximum heart range can do damage to your heart so take care and stay within the safe range. It is advisable to check with your physician to find out what your safe range is. I recommend investing in a good exercise program and push yourself to become the best you can be but exercise in a sensible manner, learn how to monitor your heart rate and work out safely.
