There are a lot of cardiovascular equipment in sports equipment stores, but few people know why and what they are for.
First of all, such simulators are aimed at strengthening and maintaining health: the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Moreover, such training improves the entire tone of the body, so it is very important to monitor your breathing and pulse during cardio loads. The pulse should be increased several times, depending on the desired result. If the goal is to lose weight, then the pulse should be increased by 60 percent of its normal frequency, and if the goal is to increase muscle mass, then by 80 percent. It is easy to monitor your pulse. Moreover, all modern simulators are equipped with special sensors and screens, on which you can see not only the change in heart rate, but also the speed of running or walking, the time that has passed since the start of the workout, kilometers and calories. All this is calculated by a special program, which is configured according to a certain formula.
In cardio training, as in any other, the result depends directly on the regularity of the exercises. If you need to lose weight or lose a certain amount of kilograms, then you need to work out on such simulators every day. If the goal of your workouts is to maintain muscle tone, then two, three or four times a week are enough. In addition, you should not achieve the desired results with just cardio training. In addition, you need to monitor your diet and include strength loads and stretching exercises in your workouts. It is very important to monitor not only your diet, but also your sleep. When starting exercises, you need to be sure that the body is rested and ready to start working on itself. It is necessary to start such classes only after consulting the appropriate doctor, because there are heart diseases that a person cannot diagnose on his own.
The workout time can vary from forty to sixty minutes, depending on the physical fitness of the person. First you need to do a small warm-up to warm up the muscles, and at the end it is good to stretch.
In conclusion, we can say that you can buy such a simulator at any sports store or on the Internet. Each company of such a plan will advise and help you choose the one that meets all your desires. If there is not enough finance, then you can do without a simulator. Just running or walking in place is a great substitute for any exercise machine, because all of this can be done outdoors, in the bosom of nature.
