Cardio

Cardio is an essential exercise with many benefits for the body and mind. Cardio exercise includes running, jogging, biking, walking, swimming, dancing, and more. All these activities get your heart rate up to a certain level and maintain it there for a certain period. Regularly engaging in cardio exercises can enhance your cardiovascular health by maintaining your heart rate and increasing your body’s oxygen uptake. Additionally, this exercise can help lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Your lungs will also benefit from cardio workouts, which can increase the amount of oxygen available in the bloodstream and reduce stress from breathing too rapidly or shallowly.

The benefits of cardio and weight lifting extend beyond physical health; regular aerobic exercise can also improve mental health by releasing endorphins that give you a sense of well-being. It also helps reduce anxiety levels since exercising releases energy while simultaneously calming the mind because it occupies your thoughts with something unrelated to what makes you anxious. Furthermore, if done outside, you may be exposed to sunlight which has been known to have positive effects on moods due to the release of Vitamin D into our bodies through skin contact with UVB rays in the sunshine.
