- .... is aerobic activity is for fitness, and help with fat control. Any possible
benefits to health are additional. e health benefits from aerobic exercise
are exaggerated by many enthusiasts. Because you are seriously working out
with weights you are already getting tremendous benefits from exercise. But
people who do not do any other exercise are going to get substantial benefits
from even just modest aerobic training because that is their only formal

training. As little as quarter of an inch variation can make quite an impact.
Once you have found a heel height that suits you, stick to it, though you may
prefer to use footwear without heels for when you deadlift.. Chiropractic
