Personal Heart Rate Monitors and Aerobics
Aerobic means "with oxygen". During aerobic exercise such as running or biking, oxygen is taken into your body and delivered to your body cells. How effectively that happens is a measure of your aerobic fitness.
Anaerobic means "without oxygen" Anaerobic exercise is any activity that's not steady enough to be aerobic, such as bowling or slow dancing.
Aerobic exercise is important for overall health and fitness and it helps burn calories while you're exercising. If you exercise aerobically for at least 20-30 minutes three times a week, you'll strengthen your heart. Regular exercise can also lower the cholesterol in your blood ans reduce your blood pressure if you already have high blood pressure.
