TYPES OF EXERCISES
The types of physical activity that can help you get fit and stay
healthy include:

A. Aerobic or "cardio" activities. These make your heart beat faster


and make you breathe harder, such as brisk walking, riding a bike,
dancing, or running. They strengthen your heart and lungs and build
up your endurance.

B. Strength training activities. These make your muscles work


against, or "resist," something. Examples include lifting weights or
doing push-ups. These activities help tone and strengthen your
muscles and bones.

C. Stretches. These let you move your joints and muscles through
their full range of motion. Stretching helps you be more flexible.
