~45 Minute Circuit Training
(everything here is body weight. I do a variation of squats, lunges, push ups, high knees, jumping jacks...whatever gets and keeps your heart rate up!)
**for cardio, I ALWAYS do high intensity interval training (HIIT). I think HIIT is the most efficient way to burn calories and see results -- and it's the only thing that keeps me from getting bored. I'll switch off on the spinner, treadmill, and stair master depending on how I feel that day. :)
On the spinner I'll do intervals like 30 second sprint, 30 second rest x5. 1 minute sprint, 45 second rest x7. Climb. Then 20 second sprint, 10 second rest x8.
On the treadmill I'll increase my speed by .5 every minute starting at 6 and ending at 9. Then I bring it back to 6 and jog to rest for 2 minutes. Repeat 2-3 times.
My stairmaster workout consists of a three minute warm up at 65-70 steps per minute. Then I do intervals of 1 min at 80 steps per minute, hitting every other step, 1 min at 105 steps per minute, hitting every step, 1 min at 125 steps per minute, hitting every step, and rest at 65 steps per minute for 1 min. That's one interval and I usually repeat 5-7 times depending on how I'm feeling. :)
