HOW MUCH?
- There is no 'best' cardio exercise. Anything that gets your heart rate up fits the bill
It's not what you do, but how hard you work. Any exercise can be challenging if you make it that way
- Do something you enjoy. If you hate gym workouts, don't force yourself onto a treadmill. If you like socializing, consider team sports or a walking club.
- Do something you can see yourself doing at least 3 days a week.
Be flexible. You don't have to do the same thing all the time--it's boring and will lead to weight loss plateaus as well.
Don't worry about the science behind heart rate. To get started take note of your percieved exertion, keep your cardio just below the level of were you can't hold a converstation, maybe a 4-6, and you will be doing some good.
