The best cardio ways are aerobic exercise. That is pretty much anything that makes your heart beat faster for a long period of time (between 20-30 minutes)
biking/ cycling (fast or at a medium pace)
jogging through a vast distance (sprinting is not considered aerobic excercise)
aerobics
dancing (is considered one of the best types of aerobic excercise)
skating
linedancing
ballroom dancing (waltzing)
sports that raise up your heart rate (such as football/ soccer) but you will need to play that for at least 30 minutes.

here's a good website to know more (I also listed it in my source)
http://www.disability.vic.gov.au/dsonline/dsarticles.nsf/pages/Aerobic_exercise?OpenDocument

some important things to remember are:
Aerobic exercise is any form of activity that uses oxygen in the production of energy.
For an activity to be aerobic, it needs to involve large muscle groups, rhythmically, over a period of time.
If you are over 40 years, haven’t exercised regularly for a long time or you have a pre-existing medical condition (or if you have any other concerns), you should consult with your doctor before you start a new exercise program.

Start by walking at a brisk pace for 30 minutes stretching before and after your walks. Then progress to light jogging building up your endurance gradually. Do 4 sets of crunches (25 ea set) and 4 sets of pushups (20 ea set) Do this about every other day and maybe take a swim the other days. Good luck.
