Workout and weight loss on wheels- anerobic exercise

Fitness is the other part of weight loss. There are 3 types of exercises based on their goal: Aerobic exercises, increase cardiovascular muscles. Examples are cycling, swimming, walking, rowing, or running. Anaerobic exercises, increase short term strength. Examples are weight training, functional training or sprinting, Flexibility exercises, increases lung capacity. Examples are stretching, range of motion of muscles and joints. Exercise helps the heart do less work to oxygenate the muscles, increases blood flow to the muscles. Deep breathing helps the development of the heart and lungs. People who are in a wheelchair most of the day may lead to discomfort, painful, and muscles that haven't been used. Try to keep the body moving as much as possible; let the wheelchair be part of your fitness program. If you don't use your muscles they will stop working and you will gain weight.
