The Benefits of Aerobic Exercise for Weight Loss and Fitness

Aerobic exercise, such as jogging, Zumba and a variety of other activities, is a great way to lose weight, get in shape and tone your body up. It has countless benefits, but here are some of my favorites!

Increased Stamina
Aerobic exercise uses your body's natural need for oxygen, and as such, aerobic exercise takes place over a fairly long period of time. However, aerobic exercise done over and over again will allow you to exercise longer and longer. This increased physical endurance will apply to all sorts of different physical activity, and anything from going on a walk to cleaning the house will be much easier.

Weight Loss

If you pair aerobic exercise with a balanced, healthy diet, then you'll lose weight and keep it off. Even if you’re lifting weights, you’ll still lose weight, because you’ll be burning fat! For those that want to slim down instead of bulking up, aerobic workouts are the perfect solution.

A Stronger Heart
Your heart is perhaps one of the strongest muscles in your body, and getting regular exercise helps it stay in shape. Aerobic workouts, where your heartbeat gets pounding, helps your heart take your daily work in stride. So the more often you get a good dose of aerobic exercise, the stronger your heart gets, and the less likely it is to get sick.

Eliminate Bad Cholesterol
When you get aerobic exercise in, your body boosts up the amount of high density lippoprotein (what people think of as "good" cholesterol) and it cuts down on the amount of low density lippoprotein (what you'd consider "bad" protein). This can be a great boost for those dealing with cholesterol problems, or who just want to keep their arteries clear from all possible blockages over the years.

Increased Physical Longevity
When you get the proper amount of aerobic exercise your body will last longer, physically, than if you didn't. This means that as you age you will experience fewer aches and pains than other people your age, and you'll be able to remain physically active and independent as long as you maintain your muscles and joints. More physical activity means stronger joints and muscles, and fewer injuries. It's entirely possible that, with proper exercise and eating, you can remain active and healthy your entire life.

Longer Life
Studies have shown, according to the Mayo Clinic, that if you exercise properly and you include aerobic exercise in your routine, then you are more likely to live a longer life. The overall health benefits that are provided to those that regularly engage in aerobic exercise is enough to add years onto your span.

These are all compelling reasons to get up off the couch and go for a walk, sign up for a Zumba class or start jogging a couple times a week. Just remember that while aerobic exercise is good for you, you have to pace yourself and do what your body is capable of handling. After all, too much of a good thing can lead to problems with your body, rather than solutions that will allow you to stay healthy.
