I love my cardio workouts... Especially when they can be done on a treadmill or in the comfort of my own cozy home. There are some great cardio workout videos out there that are 45+ minutes. As much as I love them, it can be difficult for me to get 45 minutes of cardio, plus shower, plus hair and make-up into a day. For those busy-bee days, I look to the amazing Amanda Russell and some other fantastic, quick cardio workouts.
Cardio Kick
I found this cardio video while scanning youtube for some great workouts that take less than thirty minutes. This Cardio Kick workout came up and I became super excited. It is pretty rare that I think about a workout all day until I can do it, but for this one, I did.
Amanda Russell is fantastic. She can fit some great muscle toning, fat burning exercises into less time than it takes to do most anything. This workout is no exception. You will be sweating by the end and burn quite the high calorie count. The workout is a circuit that lasts about 20 minutes and is comprised of some jogging, jumps, floor activity, and kicking (of course).
I would totally recommend this if you get bored during long workouts or most circuit routines. The time between activities is quick and each exercise goes by quite fast. Loved it.
BeFit in 90 Cardio Workout
The BeFit in 90 workout system may have a post of it's own soon enough. BeFit is an incredible YouTube channel that has some massive fat burning, muscle building, workout videos. Most of there workouts are by a few different trainers and aggregates workout videos by trainers like Jillian Micheal's and Denise Austen.
The BeFit in 90 is a workout system that lasts 90 days. This cardio workout video is one in the 90 day line-up, but is good on it's own too. The short circuits and high intensity will help burn fat while building muscle. Best of all, everything about this video is geared towards the busy person. The workout is intense, but it is over in less than ten minutes. This would be great to do on it's own when time is tight, or as a warm-up before yoga!
