Jumping jacks might get kind of boring, not to mention tough on your joints. What about exercise DVDs/videos? Or running stairs if you live in an apartment?

Wilmington, DE (PRWEB) September 06, 2011
According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), every 25 seconds an American has a coronary event, and every 60 seconds someone in this country dies of heart disease ?making it America?s number one killer. CardioChoices.com, a new website dedicated to increasing awareness of cardiovascular disease, offers clear educational videos and information that patients and their caregivers can use to learn about their condition and the medical procedures they will go through.
?CardioChoices was developed to educate heart patients on heart problems such as: heart disease, heart attacks, heart failure, atrial fibrillation and arrhythmias,? said Jim Kotwis, co-founder of CardioChoices.com. ?Our custom videos are designed to make heart-related conditions and procedures easier to understand, so that patients can have open and informed discussions with their cardiologists regarding heart disease.?
The videos were developed by a medical illustrator and two cardiologists who sit on CardioChoices? medical advisory board: David Frazier, MD of Heart Rhythm Associates, PLLC in Greenville, NC and Srinivas Koneru, MD, Director of Interventional Cardiology at St. John Macomb Hospital in Warren, Michigan.
?Learning about cardiovascular procedures and treatments before there is a problem can also lead to better heart health and wellness,? says Kotwis. ?There is no better medicine than preventative medicine.?
Kotwis believes that CardioChoices.com is a superior choice for patient education because its clear focus on cardiology is easier to understand and doesn?t overwhelm people like other sites that try to cover every type of medical issue. In the future, Kotwis is planning to launch a new site that will focus on cancer, and another that will focus on orthopedic, neuro-vascular and spinal disorders.

Best answer:
Answer by Dj J
One of the best things to do for a great cardio workout is bike riding , it is nicer on the knees then running and you get to enjoy the great outdoors . If you have snow where you are , try cross country skiing , great cardio and all body workout . If none of the above suit your fancy , get yourself a punching bag and hit away , one more way for a cardio workout.
There are so many ways , even having sex , that by far is the BEST way.

Question by musiqschild: Cardio….?
I joined a gym today and after ten minutes of jogging on the treadmill, I was physically sick. I was nauseas and I began to cold sweat… it literally took me five minutes for my heart rate to return to normal…then I was faint and dizzy.
My trainer thinks it is due to my lack of training, which I am not sure about as I do salsa and tons of pilates. I however have a cardiac arrythmia and am asthmatic… my doctor thinks that it is not life threatening…but if my heart or respirtory problems are the cause of my issue with cardio… how can I control it?
well i was pulled out of physical education class in 8th grade.

A lot of people wonder whether they should do their cardio before or after weights. The answer isn’t so simple though. Various factors greatly determine if doing cardio before or after weights makes the most sense for you. Perhaps the number one, biggest influence in this answer is your individual fitness goals. Goals such as getting fit overall, bulking up your muscles and losing those extra pounds helps you decide on how hard you are going to hit the workout routines; your intensity and determination can help decide the order of your routine.
Besides your overall aim in working out, also need think about the following things when figuring out if you will do weight training first or cardio first.
1. Intensity of each component: are you performing a simple aerobics routine of steady state cardio or high intensity interval training (HIIT)? Do you perform low rep, heavy lifting or high rep training to failure?
2. Duration of each component: is cardio a marathon or short but intense session?
3. Conditioning: how do your muscles feel after cardio vs. weights? What fatigues you more?
4. Motivation – Do you have a personal preference as to which exercise you want to do first? Are you more focused earlier in your workout or later?

Doing cardio before weight training was proven to be beneficial in a small study of ten men done by Brigham Young University. The findings are as follows:
* They concluded that it is better to do weight training after cardio when the two would be performed in the same workout. * Participants burned more calories for a longer period when weight training was done after the cardio portion. * On average, participants found it more difficult to do the cardio after the weight training.
Unfortunately, this study was only conducted on 10 individuals, so it isn’t a hard fast finding by any means. Sure, there are good things to be said for doing cardio first, but what about melting away all the fat?
When you think about it, it’s very practical to do your cardio exercise after weight training. It is very beneficial for your energy level to be at its highest rate when you are lifting weights. It requires a lot of mental focus and physical coordination to successfully do weight training. A bulk of most cardio workouts involve the legs, making it extremely difficult to be able to do sets of heavy squats following a 45-minute cardio workout. That being said, the inverse is also true in that trying to run after doing heavy squats isn’t the easiest thing in the world either.
I do think that it’s a good idea to either separate your cardio and weight training sessions into different days, or to do weights and then cardio, I also suggest the following as overall goals:
1. You can increase your endurance by doing cardio first; that can be done using high intensity interval training.
2. You can increase muscle by doing weights first, then cardio; both need a great focus and energy to perform well.
3. Burn fat: it depends! Many beginners benefit from doing cardio before weight training because they can burn more calories by performing a longer cardio routine relative to a weight training routine which tends to fatigue them faster. However, if you are advanced in your exercise routine, you could do a series of resistance training followed by cardio to help maximize fat burning due to an accelerated release of fatty acids and HGH into the bloodstream.
4. Improve health: order has no impact when it comes to improving overall health
The bottom line is that there is no clear answer to the question: should I do cardio before or after weights? Doing cardio work before weight training will increase your cardio endurance, however doing cardio work after weight training will help you to bulk up the size and strength of your muscles. You must decide which order benefits you the most and helps you reach your fitness goals best.

When a lot of people hear about cardio and muscle building, they tend to ignore the word “cardio” as it is related to different feelings. Most people link cardio to pain and there are several reasons why.
Cardio can be very exhausting, especially if you are in bad shape and you need to push yourself further than normal. We will in this article go through some facts about cardio and muscle building and what you need to know to apply it in your routine.
-Cardio and muscle building fact #1:
Cardio is great for your internal health. It will make your heart pump stronger; it will keep you away from heat diseases, high blood pressure and diabetes, to name a few.
-Cardio and Muscle Building Fact #2:
There are a lot of ways to do cardio and muscle building. Most people relate cardio to running, but if you don’t like to run, then go for a jog, use an exercise bike, skipping, aerobic, martial arts, swimming, spinning etc.
]]>
-Cardio and Muscle Building Fact #3:
Depending on what your goal is, there are different ways of doing cardio. You can do HIIT training with high intervals or you can go for a jog. The good thing about HIIT training is that your metabolism is high during the exercise and you burn a lot more calories during the short period of time.
HIIT training is especially good for martial artists as it will help during sparring and ultimately in fights.
-Cardio and Muscle Building Fact #4:
You can have workout sessions where you use a combination of cardio and muscle building. With this is meant that you do high interval workouts, with a lot of repetitions and go from workout to workout with extremely short breaks.
This will keep your heart rate up and burn a lot of calories. But don’t make this an everyday routine. Do this kind of workout, maybe once a week, just to switch it up a little.
-Cardio and Muscle Building Fact #5:
Cardio and Muscle Building don’t go hand in hand when you want to increase your body weight. That is because you want to increase your calorie consumption when gaining weight and cardio does the exact opposite.
It is however good to have cardio on some days because of the benefits. What I recommend is that you try out cardio twice a week and if you see that no weight is gained, then cut down to 1 week and if that don´t help, eat more.
-Cardio and Muscle Building Fact #6:
Cardio and Muscle Building is great if you want to cut fat and lose weight. You will burn a lot of calories and get a more ripped look with well defined abs.
When doing cardio and muscle building, I recommend that you make use of different cardio exercises to keep it fun. Remember that Cardio and Muscle Building can be a great cocktail; you just need to combine them the right way.

TUCSON, Ariz. (PRWEB) April 23, 2008
A class of drugs widely used to treat high blood pressure doesn’t boost the risk of cancer, as a recent analysis suggested, U.S. health authorities announced Thursday.
The drugs are known as angiotensin-receptor blockers (ARBs) and include medicines such as telmisartan (Micardis), losartan (Cozaar), valsartan (Diovan) and candesartan (Atacand).
The determination comes from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which just concluded a safety review of the drugs.
“It is comforting to have this data to support what we clinically felt was true,” said Dr. Joseph Diamond, director of nuclear cardiology at Long Island Jewish Medical Center in New Hyde Park, NY.
FDA undertook the review after a meta-analysis appearing in July 2010 in The Lancet found a “modestly increased risk” — about 10 percent — of cancer diagnoses among people taking ARBs, and a smaller increased risk of death from cancer.
Until that report, there had been very little concern about the safety of the prescription drugs.
“It’s a drug that’s been out for a very long time so we have a lot of clinical experience with it,” Diamond said.
In fact, he added, many physicians were skeptical when the Lancet findings were first announced. “That study really was not designed to look for cancer,” he said.
Dr. Cheryl Laffer, an associate professor of internal medicine in the Texas A&M Health Science Center College of Medicine, said that she and other physicians weren’t worried when that study came out, but many patients were.
“The ARBs are probably the most widely used class of medications for patients with high blood pressure,” said Diamond. “They’re used in patients with general hypertension and particularly in patients who may have hypertension with diabetes or hypertension with kidney disease.”
The drugs are given once a day and have some added benefit in protecting the kidneys from the ravages of high blood pressure and diabetes, he added.
“They’re better tolerated than ACE inhibitors [another type of blood pressure medication]” but have the same effect, said Laffer, who is also senior staff of medicine/hypertension at Scott & White in Temple. “Their side effect profile is no bigger than placebo.”
The FDA review looked at 31 trials involving a total of more than 155,000 patients who had been randomized to receive either ARBs or another hypertension treatment.
As far as Laffer is concerned, the FDA report is definitive. “I think they did their job. They looked at all analyses which had used ARBs as compared to anything and they found no overall increased risk. They looked at hundreds of thousands of people,” she said.
