No Equipment Needed Cardio Circuit Workout

A cardio workout was on the books for this morning. I was not in the mood to stick with one form of cardio today and ended up completing quite the cardio hodgepodge workout!

• 10 min. elliptical
• 15 min. stair master
• 1 round “no equipment needed” cardio circuit (detailed below)
• 10 min. elliptical

My favorite part of today’s workout was the “no equipment needed” cardio circuit workout:

I made up this workout on the fly but it was inspired by my jump rope circuit workout.

The above circuit workout is very similar to the jump rope circuit, but it’s a little shorter, making it a great circuit to do two times through if you’re looking for a fast at-home workout option and don’t have any fancy equipment at your fingertips. All you need is a jump rope, but you can simply imitate the jump rope motion if you don’t have one.

In case you’re a little unsure about several of the moves listed above, here are some instructional links:

• Skaters
• Mountain Climbers
• Ski Jumps
• Burpees

Breakfast

Breakfast today was a no-brainer since I prepped it last night.

I made a batch of overnight oats using strawberry banana Greek yogurt and topped it with freshly sliced strawberries.

I have a feeling overnight oats are going to pop up on the blog more and more as the days continue to warm up as summer approaches. Overnight oats and smoothies seem to dominate my morning meals in the summer!

I’m off to take Sadie on a quick morning walk before cramming in some work. I also have a Taste of Ocala committee meeting at lunchtime, so I’ll see ya after that!
