Aerobics

History of Aerobics Dr. Kenneth H. Cooper, a physician at the San Antonio Air Force Hospital in Texas, devised a form of exercise that helped to prevent coronary artery disease. He called this system Aerobics. These exercises were initially invented for astronauts and they were carefully monitored for pulse rate and oxygen consumption. Later, it was observed that these types of exercises were also useful for the general population and thus came about the different forms of aerobics such as dance aerobics, step aerobics, water aerobics etc. Cooper published a book called `Aerobics` in the year 1968. It included scientific exercise programs using running, walking, swimming and bicycling. This book became an instant success as it came at a time when the American population were starting to face the ill effects off the sedentary lifestyle they had grown used to due to the advent of the many comforts that technology provided. During the next two decades, aerobic dance and exercise in various forms spread throughout the United States and into other countries. The number of aerobic participants in the U.S alone grew from an estimated 6 million in 1978 to 22 million in 1987. In 1983, Howard and Karen Schwartz organized Sport Fitness International (SFI) to oversee a new competitive sport they had developed, known as sport aerobics. The first world championships were held at San Diego in March of 1990 with athletes from 15 countries competing. Sport aerobics originally featured competition in four categories: Individual male, female, mixed pairs, and trio, which can include any three athletes. In 2002, competition was added for groups of six athletes. Competitors are judged on a one-minute, 45-second routine done to music. Judges use two criteria, artistic merit and technical merit, with a maximum of 10 points each. The Federation Internationale Gymnastique formally adopted sport aerobics as a gymnastics discipline in the year 1996 after their first world championship in 1995.

Dumbells come in a wide variety of weights. Choose a size that works for you.

Dancing DvDs because they are fun quick way to stay active .

you are a cheater!:) i tried typing in the same thing ... haha

let it be

Yes. Water Aerobics and Step aerobics are a type of Cardiovascular exercises . Here is a source from A Cardiovascular Website.

Some common examples of aerobics exercises include cycling, biking, jogging, running, swimming and dancing. You can also carry out your aerobic workout on different machines in the gym like treadmill, stationary exercising bike, stair-stepper etc.

Recently, Step Aerobics, Dance aerobics and Water Aerobics are growing in popularity.

Proper cardio exercise increases the efficiency of the cardiovascular system. In other words, it will improve your degree of fitness. This not only makes daily life much easier, but it also can literally save your life during emergencies.

Basically, the streamlining usually culminates in a pointed tip or similar device which will 'cut' through the air, pushing the particles out the way, where as an object without streamlining, with a bulky front, will just face up to the particles and get slowed down by having to push through them.

Improved answer: Most exercises should begin from your default standing position, standing on your ball (avoid standing on your heels or flat) and toes, feet displaced shoulder width, knees slightly bent, lower back slightly curved, mid and upper back and neck vertically aligned.

__________________________________________

Basic Positions where most exercises begin are the following;

1. Standing Positions (both feet, shoulder width apart with knees slightly bent)

2. Sitting Positions (arched back)

3. Lying Position

4. Kneeling Positions

5. Arm Support Positions

6. Four Base Positions

7. Hand Positions

8. Arm Positions

It depends on how fast you are walking. People tend to walk at a pace of about 3.1 mph (or 4.54667
feet per second). If a person were walking at this speed, it would take them about 43 seconds to walk 197 feet.

Wrestling

Shin pain is the most common overuse injury, while foot and knee overuse injuries are also common. .

You can reduce pain by keeping the impact low. Low-impact exercises such as a stationary or recumbent bicycle, elliptical trainer, or exercise in water, help keep joint stress down while walking.

Cross training gives athletes a chance to keep things mentally fresh by participating in a different activity. Swimming provides a cardiovascular workout that avoids wear and tear on the body cross training help lung and heart efficiently cross training also help prevent diseases Risk of cross training are risk for sustaining injury risk for strain and sprain too much exercise can make some one to collapse due to over use of oxygen and glucose by the body.

False.

The long-term effects of exercise on the respiratory system are helping the lungs to become healthier and to produce a greater number of alveoli, and increasing the vital capacity and tidal volume of the lungs.

The short-term effects of exercise on the lungs would be there will be an increase of air sacks in the lungs. It will also start clearing out any mucus that may be in any of them. There will also be an increase in the capacity of the lungs and there will be another increase of the strength of the diaphragm muscle.

Non-aerobic exercise refers to physical activities that do not primarily rely on oxygen for energy production. Instead, these exercises typically involve short bursts of high-intensity movements that use stored energy sources, such as ATP and creatine phosphate, for quick power output. Examples include weight lifting, sprinting, and high-intensity interval training (HIIT). Non-aerobic exercise helps build strength, muscle mass, and power, contrasting with aerobic exercise that enhances cardiovascular endurance.

it can be both depending on the conditions of the environment in which it lives.

Aerobic dance is a form of exercise which combines dancing and strength exercise. It was developed by a doctor and physiologist team to help improve the fundamentals of exercising.

The Aerobic Energy system works via the breakdown of carbohydrates by oxygen. The by products of this process are water (in sweat) carbon dioxide (in breath) and heat (produced by the muscles).

The quadriceps muscles of the anterior compartment of the thigh are responsible for the action of extending the knee. The quadriceps are actually four muscles all working together. They consist of the rectus femoris, the vastus lateralis, the vastus medialis, and the vastus intermedius.They are all monoarticulate, except the rectus femoris which is diarticulate, which means that it acts on two joints.

If you loose a lot of weight and don't build enough muscle mass you can depending on how big u were, but that can be fixed with plastic surgery.

Well most of the sports use gravity especially the ones when you have to not touch the ground at some point. Sports like darts don't use gravity because there feet are always on the ground.
