Video: Fun 8-Minute Cardio Interval Workout

This short video will give you a full-body workout in just 8 minutes - no equipment needed. Doing your cardio in intervals not only strengthens your heart and cardiovascular capacity, but it also boosts your metabolism for up to 24 hours after your workout, and it's easier on your body than steady-state endurance cardio, which is hard on your heart and your other muscles.

Plus it's way more fun, since you are constantly switching motions and taking breaks in between exercises, which is more natural for your body. And you'll be done with your whole workout in less than 10 minutes! Be sure to let your heart rate come down a bit in between sets in order to get the maximum benefits. And use the modifications if needed - work at your own pace and fitness level. (Be sure to consult your physician before beginning any new exercise routine, especially if you are starting at a low fitness level.)

Video - Moderate Cardio Workout

This workout may not feel "moderate" to some, but if it's too much, just do 1 set - it's only 4 minutes long - you'll probably be sweating already!  Then play the clip over again when you're ready to add more.

And be sure to warm up first, as there is no warmup included in this video, and that is very important before a cardio workout. You can start with some gentle jogging in place, a few jumping jacks, then stretch, and you should be good to go. Go easy your first time, and stop to rest if you need to. Be sure to breathe throughout. And remember to cool down and stretch when you're done! (Watch it through once first, as there are no verbal instructions, so you have to watch the screen for the cues.)
