Fat Burning Cardiovascular Exercises

What is the best form of cardiovascular excercise? The answer for this is different by every individual depending on his physical goals, but a genral answer for this is the best for of cardiovascular exercise is which is the most useful and has minimum risks.

Tody treadmill is one the most popular form of cardio being used in gyms and fitnss centers. Walking on a treadmill on a flat grade risks to minimum injury but minimum reward too. As a result to this few calories are burned and it is too high impact for the uncondioned and obese.Minimum risk is involved in walking slow on a flat treadmill with no grade but also minimum rewars are are gained as it does not burn enough calories to reduce the bodyfat.To increase the efficacy of workin on a treadmill there are two ways, one is to increase the excercise rate;you can run and jogg at will. Running and jogging are tow must excercises when it comes to burning the calories, but these two put a lot of stress on the knees and lower back. The unconditioned,seniors or injured should not follow the running part as it may cause a problem to the joints bones and connective tissues.
The second way is increasing the rate of grade of treadmill which becomes equivalent to walking hill and mountains.Incline treadmill walking is an impactfull calorie and fat burner, but it might cause problems to the ones suffering from lower back,knees or foot issues.
SO it is noticed that treadmills have their merits and demerits.Using thid your main cardio will depend upon any factors like injuries and how much indurance you have.

Another very popular type of cardio being in gyms today is stationary cycling. Stationary cycling had almost the same pros and cons as riding a bike outside. I believe moreover cycling is superior to running and jogging as it burns lot of calories without giving any stress to knees and back that it recieves from jogging and running. However, the stress to the joint and back can be generated by intense cycling.

I prefer the elliptical machine due to its non-impact nature and the huge range of motions.You can adjust the ramp,resistance and speed to target the largest lower body muscles without giving any stress to the joints or the spine. Here,there is a possibility of turning up the intensity level of training with minimum risk to injuries.In short elliptical training is a superior form of cardio.
