It works hard, pumping blood every day of your life. You can help this important muscle get stronger by doing aerobic exercise. Aerobic means &#8220;with air,&#8221; so aerobic exercise is a kind of activity that requires lots of oxygen. When you breathe, you take in oxygen, and, if you&#8217;re doing aerobic exercise, you may notice you&#8217;re  breathing faster than normal. Aerobic activity can get your heart pumping and also make you sweaty.<\/p>\n<p>When you give your heart this kind of workout on a regular basis,  your heart will get even better at its main job \u2014 delivering oxygen (in  the form of oxygen-carrying blood cells) to all parts of your body.\u00a0 What a great start to our morning!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fitness trainer Jo took us through our paces and got our hearts pumping on Wednesday morning during our Keeping Healthy Week.\u00a0 The children (and teachers) really enjoyed the short active routine and were keen to participate and get their bodies moving to the beat.\u00a0 Many thanks Jo &#8211; one of the best ways to encourage [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6791"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6791"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"http:\/\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6791\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6947,"href":"http:\/\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6791\/revisions\/6947"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6791"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6791"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6791"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
