The Best Home Cardio Workouts

Home cardio workouts can relieve the stress of rush hour traffic and even your hectic day at work. Have you ever driven past the gym after a long day and decided to grab a quick dinner and workout early tomorrow morning?

Getting up early to go to the gym is great for some people, but how many times do you decide to give up your sleep time to go exercise? If you find yourself falling into these patterns of thinking and out of the habit of working out, then home cardio workouts are the perfect answer for you.

Here are a few cardio workouts you can do at home to successfully burn fat and keep you fit without losing any precious sleep time.

Stationary bikes are great for home cardio workouts. It is recommended that you workout at least thirty minutes for the best cardio results. The slow, aerobic, long duration types of exercise you get from stationary bikes also works good to burn fat.

If walking and running is the way you like to workout, there is nothing better than having a treadmill in your home. Treadmills offer you one of the best home cardio workouts. This is especially true if you walk or run on an incline. Walking or running on an incline gets your heart rate up quickly for maximum cardio benefits.

Elliptical exercise trainers offer you the very best home cardio workouts in the shortest amount of time. They give you a total body workout and are very effective fat burning exercises. They are becoming extemely popular with people who have limited time to workout.

To effectively burn body fat you want slow, aerobic, long duration types of exercise that involve most of the major muscle groups. Your body burns a higher percentage of calories from fat with lower intensity cardio exercises.

To get the most benefit from fat burning exercises, exercise at a moderate pace for a longer period of time. The residual effect of this type of aerobic exercise will keep fat burning long after your workouts.

Whether you like to run, walk, ride a bike or workout on an elliptical exercise trainer, thirty minutes of cardio workouts daily will keep you in great shape. Aerobic exercises increase endorphins, loosens muscles and joints, and release stress that can build up in your muscles throughout the day.

Working out from home allows you to decide when exercising is best for you. No matter what your situation is, if you want to find time for fitness, home cardio workouts are the perfect answer for you.
