3 Ways to Cure the Cardio Blues

So that treadmill in the corner of your room is collecting dust and being used as a clothes hamper instead of a fat burning machine, not to worry here are some quick fixes to ensure you are getting a good calorie burning workout.

Cardio Fix #1:
Take up a cardio kickboxing class: Successful kickboxing classes can burn upwards of 800 calories per hour. In addition to burning a ton of calories these classes are fun, fast-paced and are arguably the single best way to vary your cardio routine.

Cardio Fix #2:
If a fitness kickboxing class isn’t your thing or you prefer to exercise in the comfort of your own home grab a jump rope and buy your self a heavy punching bag. Jump rope for 3 minutes then do 2 or 3 minutes on the bag and you will be blown away at the results you make.

Cardio Fix #3
Grab a friend and take up a new sport. Get involved with a league. Not only will this help to keep you in shape but also you will have something to look forward to each week.
