Daily Fit Tip: Mix up your cardio
Categories: Daily Fit Tip
Even the most motivated of exercisers can't help but get bored with the same routine day in, day out. I know -- for years, I spent almost all my gym time doing the same cardio workout : a 10-minute warm-up on the StairMaster at level 4, 30 minutes on the elliptical trainer at level 7, 20 minutes on the bike at level 8 and some weights thrown in there if I was feeling energetic. Not only was my cardio routine ineffective, it was boring and not at all challenging.
In order to keep up with your routine, you have to mix it up. eDiets has these suggestions: Try interval training (alternating super-challenging with rest periods), endurance training (a low to moderate level of activity) or one of their other cardio suggestions. You'll burn extra calories and you'll give yourself more of a challenge.Recent Posts
