45 Minutes of Cardio


I love cardio. It is my favorite. Not many people say that. I love to suffer I guess.

I created this workout to be something I can do anywhere because no equipment is needed. You have the option of using an exercise ball for one thing but it is totally optional.

This workout is by reps, not time, with exception of the warm up. So I encourage you to push yourself, especially on the 2nd round when it is hard. Just make sure you keep good form so you stay safe.

Also, feel free to adapt things to your abilities. I do. I can't do normal push ups or burpees yet due to my diastasis recti, so I adapt.

Enjoy the suffer fest.
