Cardiorespiratory Endurance For A Better Working Heart

Ultimately the heart is a muscle and the more you work it, the stronger it gets. Cardiorespiratory endurance can help you achieve more if you play any sport from golf to football. It can also keep you from developing diseases like high blood pressure and heart disease. Good cardiorespiratory endurance is basically a very good indication of how healthy you are.

How can I improve my cardiorespiratory endurance?

You can improve your cardiorespiratory endurance quite simply by doing moderate to intense aerobic activity like jogging, running or bicycling for 30 minutes a day for 3 days a week. This is easy, fun and a quite achievable goal. If you are very much out of shape, you should consult a doctor before you start working out. Increasing cardiorespiratory endurance gradually and over an extended period of time is both the norm and desirable. You should not do a very intense workout and risk injury if you are not accustomed to working out.

Which is the best activity for cardiorespiratory endurance?

There is really no best activity for cardiorespiratory endurance building. It all depends on what you can do. If you like to bicycle you should do that, if you like to run or swim you should try that. However, certain people who have bad backs may find benefit in swimming. Running is always a good way of building cardiorespiratory endurance but you should always run with a pair of good running shoes and on a soft surface like grass if you suffer from aches and pains. It is normal to be sore after many aerobic exercises and you will feel better after you become accustomed to them. If you give yourself a rest on every alternate day, this will give you time for your muscles to relax and it might help with the soreness issues.

How to measure cardiorespiratory endurance levels?

It varies from age to age. You should subtract your age from 220 and you should aim to keep your heart rate at around 70% of this number. If you maintain your level of fitness and your heart rate around this magic number you are doing well on the cardiorespiratory scale. A simple way to measure your heart rate is to use a cuff or arm blood pressure monitor. Otherwise, you can simply use a digital watch and your thumb to measure your pulse at the wrist.

Life is becoming more demanding now. If you have good cardiorespiratory endurance you will be able to perform routine daily activities easily. Climbing a flight of stairs will not make you lose your breath. You will find that you will remain more active and feel much better. Aerobic exercises especially during the morning time are of great benefit to those who suffer from insomnia and helps promote sleep.
