My favorite 30 min cardio/strength routine

I have found with adding nutritional cleansing and protein pacing I don't have to pack in super long workouts -- plus I just don't have the time.

I like set repeats which is a effective overall workout for both strength, toning and cardio. I'll do this type of workout 2-3 times a week in addition to some running and walking.

Equipment- dumbbells (your choice on weight)

Your favorite music -- I'm working on a playlist (if you have any favorite songs comment below and I'll make a playlist).

3 exercises (cardio, legs, arms), 40 secs each exercise; do all arm weights standing

Goal is continuous movement

Set 1 - butt kicks, front lunges, shoulder press

Set 2 - jumping jacks, squat jumps, chest press

Set 3 - burpees, backward lunges, arm raises

Set 4 - high knees, lilly pad squats, bicep curls

Set 5 - jump rope, squat hold, overhead tricep extensions

Set 6 - scissor jumps, sumo squat jumps, push -ups

Set 7 - star jumps, calf raises, lat pull down

30 sec break water if needed

Repeat sets 1-7

End with 2 minutes abs

• 1 min bicycle crunches

• 1 minute Russian twists
  

Cool down (stretches of your choice)

I linked to some of the less well-known exercises above but if you have questions please drop me a note.

As always feel free to modify the exercises to be more low impact if they don't suit your personal situation.

Hope this helps keep you motivated!
