ADVANTAGES
& DISADVANTAGES
OF AEROBICS
EXERCISE
Here are some of the many benefits
of
aerobic exercise
1.Increases the efficiency of
respiration
2.Improves blood volume,
distribution, and delivery to
muscles
3.Improves cardiovascular
efficiency
4. Increases the stroke volume, or
the amount of blood pumped from
the ventricle during each
contraction of the heart
5. Increases cardiac output, or the
volume of blood pumped by the
heart each minute
6. Decreases resting heart rate
7. Improves the condition and
efficiency of breathing muscles
8. Improves the efficiency of
movement
9. Improves the body’s ability to
use fat as an energy source
10. Improves body composition by
decreasing body fat
Strengthens muscles
11. Strengthens ligaments,
tendons and bones
12. Helps decrease the risk of
developing coronary artery
disease, cancer and diabetes
13. Helps decrease anxiety and
stress
14. Helps you feel better overall
The Disadvantages of
Aerobic Exercise
Lack of Time
Whether you have time limits or physical limits, 30 minutes of
exercising at one time could be quite daunting if not impossible. If this
is the case, five- or 10-minute mini-workouts could work just as well, as
long as you ensure to elevate your heart rate and keep moving.
Healthy aerobic activity is not "all-or-nothing." Do not let a lack of time
or inability to complete 30 minutes in a row rob you of the
heart-healthy benefits of aerobic activity.
Lack of Coordination
Aerobic activity often requires coordination, such as aerobic dance, or
motions which are jarring to the joints like jogging. For those who are
dancing-impaired or have delicate joints, aerobic activity is
intimidating and possibly dangerous. Luckily a variety of exercise
options are available for low-impact activities such as swimming and
elliptical orbiter machines. A spinning class is a suitable alternative for
people who fear a traditional dance-style aerobic class. Spinning is
done on a stationary bike and is also a low-impact aerobic exercise.
You May Need A Doctor's Note
If you have a cardiac or pulmonary condition, your aerobic routine
should be discussed with your physician and monitored by a personal
trainer. Your heart rate accelerates considerably during aerobic
exercise, as does your body's need for oxygen. Ironically, the best path
back to health is often exercise. If you have medical challenges, do not
begin an aerobic regime alone. Include all of those who have cared for
you and are invested in your improving health.
Just Part of a Well-Rounded Routine
For healthy individuals, aerobics alone are insufficient to define
muscles and tone the body. Aerobics helps reduce the amount of fat
on the body, but weight-bearing exercise is required to actually shape
the muscles. To compensate for this, and to maximize results, circuit
training was developed. It incorporates weight-bearing exercise into
the aerobic routine, allowing you to simultaneously reap the
cardiovascular benefits of exercise while you burn fat and tone
muscles.
11 Advantages of Aerobic
Exercises
1. Aerobic exercises helps the heart get extra blood with every beat
i.e., the heart rate gets reduced with relaxation and during exercise.
It gives better cardiac function.
2. During aerobic exercises, the fats present in the body get burnt
resulting in loss of body fat. It helps to reduce or maintain your
weight.
3. Do regular aerobic exercises to reduce stress, anxiety and
depression, as it releases natural painkillers of body known as
endorphins.
4. Aerobic exercises help your immune system. Some studies have
revealed that individuals who do regular exercises become less
vulnerable to viral infections like flu or cold.
5 .Aerobic exercises reduce the risk of diseases aggravated by extra
weight like hypertension, strokes, pathological heart
conditions, diabetes mellitus, and certain forms of cancers. It also
helps reduce risk of osteoporosis and its complications. Aerobic
exercise also helps people suffering from arthritis
6.Aerobic exercises also increases longevity.
7.You may feel tired at the time of doing the
exercise or immediately after it but actually this
increases your strength and gives an overall
sense of well-being in the long term and keeps
fatigue away from you.
8. Aerobics aids in the formation of microscopic
blood vessels which supply oxygen to muscles.
9. Aerobic exercises helps increase the
consumption of oxygen by the body. It helps to
increase blood supply to muscles and facilitates
better usage of oxygen.
10. Aerobic exercise increases
levels of good HDL cholesterol in
blood and also reduces elevated
triglycerides.
11. Aerobic exercises help us to get
better sleep.
