This workout is based on your perceived exertion level, and will combine a little bit of lower body strength training as well.  You’ll work through five short six-minute circuits, each becoming progressively more difficult.

Equipment Needed: None

Total Time: 45

Warm Up: 10 minutes of easy cardio.

Note: This workout references running, which would be ideal, however, if you’re unable to run, or would rather do some other form of cardio, substitute whatever you’d like as long as you can increase the intensity.
