This set of cardio workout routines incorporates a number of different cardio exercises like the elliptical machine, treadmill, and various calisthenics in order to dramatically increase cardiovascular endurance.

How often should I do this workout?

The recommended number of days to perform this cardiovascular workout plan is 5 days per week but for less wear and tear on your muscles feel free to scale back to 3 days per week.

Advanced users (or those who just want to improve cardio while meeting other weight training goals at the same time) can incorporate additional weight lifting into this plan. Beginners can forgo the recommended supersets and take a rest break in between exercises that call for a superset.

Stick to this cardio workout and your heart rate, lean muscle mass, and body fat percentage should all improve tremendously.
