Don't neglect that old standby, walking. It's one of the best ways to exercise, and your only expense is a pair of supportive shoes. Walking is easy on your joints, it lifts your mood, and it rewards your heart, lungs, and waistline if you keep up a brisk pace. Walk to work if possible, or if you have a desk job, take a brisk walk on one of your breaks and refresh body and mind for the rest of your workday.

If you really want to help your heart and use calories efficiently, many fitness experts say it pays to exercise in your target heart rate zone. Your target zone depends on your age and your fitness level. The total range (from low to high fitness) varies from roughly 55 to 85 percent of your maximum heart rate. If you're just starting to exercise, aim for the low end of the range (55 to 60 percent of your maximum heart rate) to promote heart health. As you get more fit, aim for the middle of the zone (70 to 75 percent of your maximum heart rate) to promote higher aerobic activity and fat burning.

The bottom line to equipment, classes, and videos is that if they get your heart rate elevated and keep it there, then it's aerobic and it counts!There you have it. Aerobic exercise is awesome stuff! It strengthens your heart, makes your muscles stronger and more efficient fuel-burners, increases your endurance and your energy, improves your mood, makes you fit and healthy, and much, much more. It could take as little as 30 minutes out of your day for a tremendous payoff so I suggest giving it a shot. Follow my advice for getting started by doing only what is realistic and build up slowly. You have only health and fitness to gain, and you're worth it.

You'll know you're in your zone if it's hard for you to carry on a conversation while exercising. If you feel totally out of breath, you should stop and rest. On the other hand, it shouldn't feel like a stroll in the park either! If you're seriously interested in keeping track of your heart rate while exercising, you might consider a heart-rate monitor, a little gizmo that straps onto your chest and sends a signal to a watch-like device on your wrist.
