Aerobic or "cardio" exercise is one the most important components of fitness in terms of improving overall health. The link between aerobic fitness and both cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes is well known. Other benefits include reducing the risk of some types of cancer, reducing belly fat, and slowing stiffness in the body’s main artery, the aorta, as we age. The American College of Sports Medicine recommends that everyone participate in aerobic activities such as brisk walking, jogging, cycling, dancing, hiking, or swimming. Aim for at least 30 minutes most days of the week.
