About
When it comes to saving those joints, protecting those tendons and trying to reduce the overall wear and tear on your body, going low impact in your exercise routine can make a lot of good sense. At this point, I think it’s just about unanimous that all personal trainers would agree to dedicate a certain amount of your workout time each week to cardio rather than just 100% weight training. Cardio is a spectacular way to burn fat, slim down and stress your body in a way that weights alone cannot. The issue with cardio is that when most folks hear the word, they immediately pull out their running shoes and hit the pavement. Running can add a serious amount of shock to your joints as well as your back and may not be the best way to go for most folks that are just looking to burn some additional calories and step up their endurance. It’s usually the knees, the ankles and even the lower back that absorbs most of the jolt from running and can leave us with mild to severe pain that quickly gets us falling off from our workout routine.
