User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

If there is one activity without which an exercise program is considered incomplete, it has to be the aerobic exercises. Some of the examples are running, swimming, rope-skipping, jogging, and cycling. These exercises have many positive effects on the body. Firstly, they help keep the weight gain in check. Secondly, they increase the flexibility of the joints as well as the muscles, thus preventing injuries. Thirdly, these cardiovascular exercises improve the lung capacity. And finally, their most important benefit is that they strengthen the heart and increase the oxygen in the body. Researches show that by undertaking any of the aerobic activities everyday, the incidence of heart diseases reduces considerably.

List of Exercises

Following is a list, from which you can take your pick of the best exercises depending upon your fitness goals as well as fitness levels:

Walking
Running and jogging
Swimming
Cycling
Aerobics dancing
Sprinting
Rowing
Playing sports such as tennis and football
Rope-skipping

How to Choose Them

The choice of activities for kids as well as adults depends upon a lot of factors, the most important being their individual fitness level. If you are a beginner who has never exercised before, you should opt for walking since it is a low-impact activity. For those of you who have average fitness levels, rope-jumping, and swimming are an ideal choice. Once your overall strength improves and your fitness levels peak, you can start performing high-intensity activities such as boxing or running.
