There is no animal in nature that does "aerobic" activity . None of them jog for 30-60 minutes with no rest This is very unnatural. On/Off is the way to excercise. Intermittent walking with random sprints . NEVER jog for 30-60 minutes NEVER do the intensity between a sprint and a walk. for a prolonged time with no rest.

This is very unnatural. On/Off is the way to excercise.

Intermittent walking with random sprints . NEVER jog for 30-60 minutes

NEVER do the intensity between a sprint and a walk. for a prolonged time with no rest.

In the time afterwards, the heart slows down to its normal rate and becomes slower to "rest" at night. When someone is overweight, however, the heart is in an exercised condition all the time, with no rest during the night or day, remember, the heart can withstand great levels of stress, but not for any prolonged period of time, like several months or years. Eventually the heart will weaken, as with any organ that is overstressed, and enlarge to try and become more efficient. This enlargement is not better for the body and eventually causes more severe heart failure.

Just go on a 30 minute job once a day and eat healthy. You can also look into some weight loss products, there are some great ones on the market today. Jogging!

Choose something YOU enjoy doing and that you can do every day. Walking. Jogging. Biking. Dancing. Heck, horseback riding is great exercise ... if you happen to live near a stable. PS Shopping does not count as exercise--no matter how much you spend. ;~) Sex is always a good choice, but that’s because I like sex and can have sex every day.

Here what I mean. A aerobic exercise is like jogging or riding a stationary bike. These types of exercises are great for burning calories or fat. The problem is they only burn calories or fat at that exact time your performing the exercise. The anaerobic exercises are like strength training.(weight lifting) These also burn fat when you are doing the actual exercise, but they also burn fat when your body is at rest by speeding up your metabolism. Why? how? Because it takes more energy(calories) to maintain a muscle than fat. So what I would do is a split routine where on certain days you do strength training and on opposite days you do aerobic exercises. You should be doing aerobic and anaerobic exercises.

I have been exercising for about ten years and walking/jogging/running is the undisputed king of exercise trust me. You may not feel it working at first, but trust me, you will start to see results within two weeks. Don't worry about going fast, just walk/jog at your pace for approx. 30 min. 3 times a week (shoot for that). Just don't burn yourself out, slow and steady wins the race!! remember to drink plenty of water before and after or you won't have the energy to do it. I drink 34oz. before and after. once you start noticing results you can mix in simple low repetition calisthenics like push ups and crunches for example. the guy with the website link is trying to sell you something by the way. no pill can make you into an athlete. did michael jordan pop a pill to become a great player? does phelps swim so fast because he popped a pill, so that he didn't even need to train? i think not. good luck. jogging. notice i said jogging NOT running. if you try to run you will burn out and won’t wanna exercise the next time. if you keep a walking/jogging pace you will lose weight and your body will be able to re-cooperate and go again in a day or two (you won’t get burned out).

]]> Comment on Q&A: How much exercise does a Siberian Husky need? by Jupiter http://www.upperworkout.com/qa-how-much-exercise-does-a-siberian-husky-need.html/comment-page-1/#comment-3955 Jupiter Mon, 18 Jul 2011 17:42:36 +0000 http://www.upperworkout.com/qa-how-much-exercise-does-a-siberian-husky-need.html#comment-3955 There is a good reason the Husky rescues are full and overflowing. They are very fun and smart and beautiful and clownish, but aren't good for most people. They are generally not cat friendly, and they do need lots and lots of exercise. 1 to 2 big walks a day is not stretching the truth. They can run and run, it's what they were bred to do. They are destructive if not given a job and a good energy release. They loose copious amounts of hair. If you are a very devoted dog person, are willing to do major socialization, who can handle the snotty bratty stage, willing to make an escape proof kennel/yard, willing to permanently keep your cats and dog separated if necessary, able to keep up with exercise (I suggest scootering or skijoring), put up with the hair, and still be able to laugh when he chews up your favorite alpaca crochet sweater, then go for it. I enjoy other people's huskies, but don't ever want one myself :) There is a good reason the Husky rescues are full and overflowing.
