Aerobic Exercise:
 is physical exercise of low to high intensity that depends primarily on the aerobic
energy-generating process. Aerobic literally means "relating to, involving, or requiring free
oxygen",and refers to the use of oxygen to adequately meet energy demands during exercise via
aerobic metabolism. Generally, light-to-moderate intensity activities that are sufficiently supported by
aerobic metabolism can be performed for extended periods of time.
 When practiced in this way, examples of cardiovascular/aerobic exercise are medium to long
distance running/jogging, swimming, cycling, and walking, according to the first extensive research on
aerobic exercise, conducted in the 1960s on over 5,000 U.S. Air Force personnel by Dr. Kenneth H.
Cooper.

Bone Strengthening Exercise:

The best exercise for your bones is the weight-bearing kind, which forces you to work against
gravity. Some examples of weight-bearing exercises include weight training, walking, hiking, jogging,
climbing stairs, tennis, and dancing. Examples of exercises that are not weight-bearing include
swimming and bicycling.

Examples:
Running, jumping rope, basketball, tennis, and hopscotch are all examples of bone strengthening
activities. As these examples illustrate, bone-strengthening activities can also be aerobic and
muscle-strengthening.

Muscle Strengthening Exercise:

This force is commonly produced by impact with the ground. Examples of bone-strengthening
activity include jumping jacks, running, brisk walking, and weight-lifting exercises. As these examples
illustrate, bone-strengthening activities can also be aerobic and muscle strengthening.
Examples of muscle-strengthening activities include:
 lifting weights.
 working with resistance bands.
 heavy gardening, such as digging and shoveling.
 climbing stairs.
 hill walking.
 cycling.
 dance.
 push-ups, sit-ups and squats.
