Cardio= cardiovascular, & cardio exercise means anything which is gonna give ur cardiovascular system (heart and blood vessels) a good workout. This is any sort of long duration, stamina type exercise like brisk walking, running, cycling, swimming. Very good way to get fit, thin and improve ur general health. Ideally we're meant to be doing 30mins of cardio exercise every day (so the government says)

Cardio exercise is exercise that works your cardiovascular system... gets your heart pumping faster. Running, cycling, squash, swimming etc. You need to do cardio exercise for a healthy strong heart, it also helps maintain a healthy metabolism.

Exercise that gets you breathing deeply and your heart pumping is classified as a cardio exercise.

an excersise that keeps the heart rate up for a certain amount of time, and makes your body actively burn fat for energy, instead of just using the simple sugers that are in your system.
