Workout:

The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) defines aerobic exercise as "any activity that uses large muscle groups, can be maintained continuously, and is rhythmic in nature." Exercise strengthens the body, heart and lungs by causing them to work harder than at rest. There are probably hundreds of ways to exercise, but the main idea behind it is to get up and get active! When you decide to become active, one of the secrets to staying with it for a long time is to choose an activity that you actually enjoy. There are also hundreds of workout plans to choose from, but there are some common principles to most of them, which should include a good combination of the following:

• Check with your doctor before starting a diet and exercise regimen.
