cardio

[keasbey]

what are you guys doing for cardio? outside jogging? does jumping rope count? swimming? treadmill/elliptical? which do you find the most effective?

Spin class twice a week, cycling when it's nice, run 3-5 miles here and there.

I find running most effective, though after I broke my hip last year I have backed off quite a bit.

30 - 45 minutes of LOW intensity cardio upon waking. I drink some BCAA and green tea extract and get on it.

Nice. I used to play this in Junior High gym class. I am more of a Frolfer myself. lol

 

[Longhorn85]

Run twice a week, basketball twice a week, rollerblade once a week.

Running is the most effective for me.

Judo 3 times a week. Great cardio.

i run 3x a week. mon, wed, and friday. on tues. and thurs, go to gym and do bike or elliptical...sp? anyway, just make sure each time is over 30 mins, and pump out some pull-ups or push-ups after. keeps the blood flowing. but, watch out for the shin splints!! that is why i only run 3x a week, it takes a big toll on me

Try swimming out. It's pretty friggin good for you on so many levels...My endurance, strength, and most importantly, shape of my muscle tone <especially my back and posture> has improved immensely from just free style lap swimming.

when the weather is bad i walk briskly on and incline.

otherwise i am walking/jogging the shit out of my dogs.
