doing exercise such as running/biking to get your heart rate up for an extended interval of time to burn calories fast
Cardio is reffering to your heart, generally the strenght of your heart. Cardio exercises revolve around watching your heart rate and trying to make your heart more forceful.
cardio is a workout hat make your heart beat faster (cardio mode heart) it will help you lose wieght, stay in shape, help heart and blood cholesterol condition
basically nay exercie that get your blood pumping an dheart beating above a conventional level is cardio... usually to catch good strength or wweight loss benefits you need to do it for 25 minutes MINIMUM
so cardio could be... swimming, walking hurriedly, running, skiing, hiking, jumping, sex (my favorite kind), etc etc etc... any exercise that get the heart racing

its exercising ur heart! (cardiovascular system).running is the main article...its basically training ur heart to deliver more fresh blood to the muscles...within my opinion 30mins or cardio workout a afternoon is more than enough to keep hold of slim and strong :))
It's cardio-vascular excercise: getting your heart rate up (to some level above normal) for 20 to 30 minutes. Ususally: jog, or being on a treadmill, stair-climber, or eliptical excerciser. It can be walking , running, swimming... anything YOU prefer... to get that heart rate up.

The alternative is "weights" or weight-training, or resistance training. i.e. lifting weights to build muscle or to tone muscle.

A flawless excercise regime has factor of both these: cardio and resistance training.
