The meaning of Cardio
The word 'cardio' refers to sports and exercises that improve the body's circulatory and respiratory system, such as running, walking, cycling, rowing, cross-country skiing, skating, swimming etc. Cardio-trainings are very important for the body's regeneration and several other vital mechanisms, for example immune system, nervous and hormonal regulation, sexual functions. By cardio-exercise we mean strengthening exercises where the heart-rate is well monitored, so as to have a positive impact on endurance and fat-burning.
