Let’s face it. Most of us hate doing cardio exercises.
But cardio is a key component of a successful exercise program.
When we exercise muscles in our bodies they become stronger and the heart is no exception.
Cardio makes our hearts stronger by increasing our body’s demand for oxygenated blood.
Our heart ensures oxygenated blood is moved throughout our body during exercise by increasing the number of times it beats per minute.
The more contractions of a muscle the stronger it becomes and when the heart is stronger it makes adaptions and is able to squeeze more blood out of the heart at one time and can do so in less beats per minute than an unexercised heart.
