At Home Cardio

Hey there peeps! So I have been a slacker when it comes to posting some workouts and I have to apologize for that! It is nearing the end of the semester here so things are pretty hectic. But don't worry, I am still doing my workouts, I just haven't posted them. I have also been working on a new website that will incorporate all the things on this blog but will also include videos and pictures so that is taking up some of my time as well.

This one I am posting today is a high intensity workout that can be used for cardio. It is meant to be fast pace and hard, but of course they are always adjustable to fit your level! Don't get scared because the circuits are longer, I promise its not bad! It is a great fat burner so try it out!

*If you have any questions about how to do any of these moves, please don't hesitate to ask. 

Front Kicks
Circuit 1:
20 Jumping Jacks
30 seconds High knees
30 seconds Butt kicks
6 Jump Squats
10 Front Kicks, each leg
30 seconds of Mountain Climber
Rest for 45 seconds to 1 minute

Circuit 2:
6 Burpees
20 Jump Jacks
5 Split Jump Squats
10 Front Kicks each leg (can be done with or without the lunge) 


30 seconds knee raises/march in place
15 seconds High Knee
15 Seconds Butt Kicks
Rest for 30 - 45 seconds (or longer if you are beginner)

Circuit 3:
30 Jumping Jacks
40 seconds of Jump Rope
5 Burpees
20 seconds jog in place
15 seconds Run in place
Rest for 30 - 45 seconds

Circuit 4:
20 Jumping Jacks
10 Lateral Jumps
5 Jump Squats

Circuit 5:

Make sure to stretch and cool down.

Go through it completely once then try again. Repeat all or any 5 of the circuits as many times as you can. Do as much as you can in 30 min. If you are pooped after 1 Round then that is fine! Just listen to your body and do all that you can!
