Do you have a hard time fitting in cardiovascular activity as well as strength training? Both are equally important, especially as we age, to keep our heart healthy and our bones strong. In fact, according to the Centers for Disease Control, “strength training can be very powerful in reducing the signs and symptoms of numerous diseases and chronic conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, osteoporosis, obesity, back pain and depression. ” My suggestion is to multi-task while on the treadmill and interval train or lift weights while walking. This can be done with short bursts of more intense aerobic activity. You should also not worry about this taking away from the quality of your aerobic activity. As indicated by Dr. Edward R. Laskowski, on MayoClinc. com, “Longer, less frequent sessions of aerobic exercise have no clear advantage over shorter, more frequent sessions of activity.
