Is cycling a cardio workout? |
Is cycling a cardio workout? Cardio for Beginners The following are suggested routines for beginners or those who are sedentary, have never exercised or haven't exercised in a long time. These workouts can be performed on a variety of machines or outside and are designed to ease you into cardio training. To progress, add a few minutes to the workout of your choice each week. Modify the workouts according to your fitness level. Add more time or reduce the workout time as needed The RPE's (Rate of Perceived Exertion) help you track intensity on a scale of 1 - 10. Choose a pace you can maintain for the length of the workout. If you can't talk or feel dizzy, stop! You can also use a Target Heart Rate Calculator to monitor your exercise intensity. Perform this workout 2-3 times a week with a day of rest in between. Be sure to progress each week by adding time and/or increasing intensity. Check with your doctor if you have any medical conditions or injuries The following walking workout is a nice choice for beginners. It requires no equipment (except a good pair of shoes) and you can do it outside or indoors on a treadmill. Feel free to adjust the workout according to your fitness level.
