Aerobic Exercise

Aerobic means with air or oxygen . Aerobic exercise refers to exercise that involves or improves oxygen consumption by the body.Aerobic activity can get your heart to pump blood more quickly and with more force than normal. As blood is pumped faster, it must be oxygenated more quickly, which quickens respiration.Thats why when we do aerobic exercise, we breathe faster than normal .
