Specializes in General Practice

The Best Exercise: You need a minimum of 20 minutes per episode of exercise three to five times per week. This exercise should also be of moderate intensity: i.e. A heart rate of no more than 130 bpm. You should be able to still speak in full sentences when you exercise. This allows you to burn sugars and fats...The things you need to burn to lose weight.
