Today is a cardio-change up - this workout is sure to burn calories, fat, and keep you interested.

For the first 3 activities utilize the HIIT or interval method. The first 45 seconds of each minute are your rest intervals. The last 15 seconds of each minute are your sprint intervals. For the sprint select a pace that makes it challenging to even talk. Choose a rest interval that is substantially less challenging than the sprint interval.

1. 6 minute run
2. 5 minute stair climb
3. 4 minute row

For the next three activities use a traditional cardio method. Choose a pace that keeps your heart pumping sufficiently, so that you can talk but not sing.

1. 4 minute run
2. 5 minute stair climb
3. 6 minute row.
