Good online cardio?



Recommended Posts

Hi - it is getting hotter and more humid here, plus there are more folks outside, so I'm finding it really hard to get outside for walks. Before all this started, I was finishing week for of C25K, but I really can't run with a mask on. I still do Pilates 1-2 times a week, but REALLY need some cardio. I've tried some online classes, but haven't found anything that really works for me. I really want something focused on cardio (so not weights or a bunch of planks, etc). I've tried some Zumba - they're OK, but I am not coordinated, so I'd say I run in place for about 1/2 of any given class because I can't do the moves. Would love any recommendations. I have Amazon Prime, Hulu, Netflix, and of course anything else that is free and web-based. Thanks!

I am also looking for some indoor cardio because I hike and walk hills and am worried about what cardio I am going to do when it gets snowy or too cold outside. The plan was to take up kickboxing, but I don't want to go to a gym at this point or wear a mask while I am working out. So I recently discovered old school Taebo workouts on YouTube which should give me my cardio/kickboxing fix this season. there are plenty of cardio vids on YouTube, but I admit that it does take some sorting through to find something that you like. I like Madfit because she has some great HIIT, low impact (no jumping), cardio vids I am going to try. I also like the Popsugar and Xhit (for strength mostly) channels. T25 was recommended to me and may be available on YouTube. I also purchased a jump rope which is excellent cardio. running stairs, especially as part of an hiit circuit, is great if u have an indoor flight of stairs. dancing to your favorite music is another option. get creative. you can def get in a good cardio workout at home.

Check out BodyGroove on YouTube it similar to Zumba but there is absolutely no coordination needed and it will get your heart moving. You can watch several episodes.

I don't know how old you are but there are free fitness workouts on AARP and Silver Sneakers websites.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
