What exercise do you do for cardio.
-
I am doing band sprints in my front yard with a lousy band now but it still adds resistance.OPT please enlighten me on which band i can purchase.I want to attach it from the pillar and do.
I also do free walking lunges and burpees.
From my experience, sprints and bodyweight calisthenics intervals burnt fat faster for me than jogging or boring slow cardio.

One word of caution for band sprints is to use what you REALLY can do.If not you will be thrown away

This one's a killer
I also used to do HIIT, and now also do combinations. I'm trying to add in some bodyweight conditioning stuff like burpee+pushup+jump to replace the HIIT since I'm usually lazy to go down to the track on off days. -
Climbing an incline fast is quite a workout.I climb Mount Faber 2-3 times per week.

i do circuits... ^^
i've a neighbourhood park near my house.
so what i do is..
pull up 10 reps
pushup 30 reps
situp 30 reps
flutter kicks 30 reps
400m sprint
all x9 sets. no rest in between. do fast, rest earlier.. thats my motivation
.
sometimes i get friends to compete with me too. makes it more exciting. and i'll do faster with peer pressure. -
used to do 5 -10 mins of HIIT on an old excercise bike, though it has now become too loose to provide proper resistance even on the hardest setting, so im doing 30 mins of slow cardio.
Im thinking of changing to burpee +pushup, as the bike no longer works my heart hard, plus burpees r supposed to increase strength.
anyone can suggest what set and rep range i should start with, or just try to perform as many as i can in a time limit, eg: 2 mins. -
10 sets of 1RM deadlifts - 2 min rest between sets
