I Like To Get Outdoors And Exercise, So Can I Substitute Walking, Hiking Or Biking For My Cardio?

Yes! Walking and hiking can provide as intense a workout as you want. By maintaining good form and a brisk pace, you can achieve the heart rate level (60 percent to 80 percent of maximum) that is ideal for fat burning. If you want to shed fat, burn more calories, develop a strong heart and lungs, then bicycling is it. Biking also shapes and tones your legs better than any other form of cardio exercise. So get out there, enjoy the weather and burn fat!
