Why cardio
Twelve reasons to move
Weight loss
All exercise burns calories. Create a caloric deficit and your body burns fat.
Stronger heart
Teaches the heart to work more efficiently.
Lower blood pressure
As the heart beats faster, blood vessels become more elastic and widen to deliver more oxygen.
Increased bone density
Weight-bearing aerobic exercise helps decrease the risk of osteoporosis.
Less stress and depression
Exercise releases endorphins — your body’s natural pain killers.
Better sleep
We simply sleep better when the body has worked.
Muscle strength for life
Strong muscles as we age keep us independent for longer.
More energy
Increase your stamina, reduce fatigue and build a more active lifestyle.
Lower risk of heart disease
Being physically active is key to preventing heart disease and stroke.
Stronger lungs
Moving large muscles makes you breathe deeper, improving lung function.
Live longer
Studies show that people who exercise regularly live longer.
Get sick less often
Exercise activates your immune system.
