cardiovascular exercises

Cardiovascular exercises, often called cardio, are activities that increase your heart rate and help improve the efficiency of your cardiovascular system—the heart, lungs, and blood vessels. Examples include running, cycling, swimming, walking, and dancing. These exercises strengthen your heart muscle, boost circulation, and enhance your body's ability to use oxygen. Regular cardio can help with weight management, increase energy levels, and reduce the risk of heart disease. It’s typically performed at moderate to vigorous intensity for sustained periods, making your heart work harder in a safe way to promote overall health.
