To get the most out of each workout, a general understanding of the principles behind aerobic
training is invaluable. The best source of information is your specialty fitness dealer. In addition to
providing information on which exercise equipment is best for your individual needs, your fitness
dealer can provide useful advice on training, technique, and exercise physiology. Your dealer can
also recommend good books and videos on these subjects.
To help you get started in planning and carrying out your fitness program, this section provides
some basic information on aerobic exercise—such as how hard should you work out, how long
each session should be, and how often you need to exercise to benefit from a regular program.
