Safe and effective aerobic training guidelines include frequency, intensity and time (FIT):
Frequency: Exercise at least three times a week.
Intensity: Exercise hard enough to reach your targe
t heart rate. (Take your pulse immediately when you stop exercising, count the beats for 15 seconds and multiply the number by four.)
Time: Include at least 20 minutes of aerobic exercise in each
session.

Benefits of Aerobic Exercise
-Increased maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max)
-Improvement in cardivascular/cardiorespiratory function (heart and lungs)
-Increased maximal cardiac output (amo
unt of blood pumped every minute)
-Increased maximal stroke volume (amount of blood pumped with each beat)
-Increased blood volume and ability to carry oxygen
-Reduced workload on the hear
t (myocardial oxygen consumption) for any given submaximal exercise intensity
-Increased blood supply to muscles and ability to use oxygen
-Lower heart rate and blood pressure at any level of
submaximal exercise

How often should I train? How hard? For how long?
-Most experts believe that 3-5 times per week for a duration of 20-60 minutes at 60-90% of age specific maximal heart rate or 50-85% of VO2max (h
eart rate reserve).

The aerobic exercise should be continuous in order to increase the heart rate and keep it elevated. Moreover, it is thought that 30-40 minutes of aerobic exercise has the added benefit of increasing t
he production of endorphins, which are pain fighting molecules produced by the body (the release of endorphins probably creates the well-known "runner¡¦s high" that occurs during exercise).

Aerobic training exercise's are any activity which increases your heart rate via working of the body muscles. Aerobic exercise strengthens the heart and lungs, (cardio vascular) system. An aerobically
fit individual can work longer, more vigorously and achieve a quicker recovery.
