You can get this total body workout done in 30 min… or you can break it down into 10 min segments!
Cardio Intervals - using equipment (treadmill, elliptical, bike) of your choice… or simply use this method while walking… or while dancing!
Start with your typical 5-10 minute warm-up
Then begin your intervals :30 ON and 1:00 OFF… :30 working at your level 8 (on scale of 1-10) and 1:00 working at your level 3-4. Aim to complete at least 6 rounds (:30 ON-1:00 OFF)… If you are feeling good, shoot to complete 12-15 rounds! This would give you ~20:00 of cardio!
After completing your intervals, get your heart rate under control by working at a lower intensity & breathing.
