So unless you’re a person that has caught the running bug you probably don’t really enjoy cardio as much as you wish you did. So I came up with a very short list of things that give you a cardio workout but may not bore you as much as running.
Heavy Bag
Something I like to do is hit a heavy bag. If done correctly a heavy bag workout can burn as many calories as running or biking. The key to it is keep moving the point of a heavy bag is to simulate a fight without getting hit back. Start out doing a 20 minute routine and trying different combos to see how you like it. So put up those mitts and knock them dead.
Jumping Rope
Jumping rope may bringing you back to your child hood a bit but it can be a good cardio workout. Speed ropes are fairly cheap and you can jump rope just about anywhere which is a cool bonus. The key to getting a good cardio workout out of jumping rope is not messing up and the time you do it. Start out trying 2 minute intervals up to 8 minutes, you won’t believe how sore your arms will get.
Sex
That is right I went there but it’s just because studies have shown that having sex can burn calories similar to running a mile. Keys to this one practicing safe sex with someone special but also making sure you’re the one doing the work. The best part about it is your having sex so you’re not thinking about running or whatever. Different way to look at it but hey can give you and your partner the exercise you needed.
Almighty then that is it for my tid bit for the day. I hope you enjoyed it and weren’t offended at all but any who if you liked it hit that like button and share with your friends.
