Stay Connected with your Cardio Workout
In deed, cardiovascular training is a proven way to burn calories and lose weight. In fact, a study done by Duke University found that cardio burns 67% more calories than resistance training.
But the benefits of cardiovascular training are embedded in its name.
The word "cardio" is short for "cardiovascular," a term used for the circulatory system consisting of the heart and blood vessels in your body.
It’s good for your heart, lungs, and circulatory system. Not to mention the endorphins released can help you cope with stress, which is an uncompromising benefit in itself.
Cardio benefits go far beyond weight loss, to say the least.
