Cardio Challenge

Sometimes it is hard for me to do cardio. Especially if I don't have any equipment and/or it is cold outside. And even though I have a spin bike, I don't always want to do the same thing. So, here is a cardio workout routine that is sure to get your heart rate up. It is hard but totally worth it!

*This, like all of my exercises can be adjusted to fit personal needs and all levels. If you can't do some of the moves, replace them with something you can do that will still keep your heart going. Enjoy!

40 Jumping Jacks
30 Seconds Jump Rope (if you don't have a rope yet then jump in place but make sure you get those feet off the ground)
20 Seconds High Knees
20 Seconds Butt Kickers
30 Seconds to 1 minute rest (drink a little water)
