What's Your Favorite Cardio?

[Puddles]

OK...I absolutely hate treadmill. I'm liking stiarmaster and eliptical. What other forms of cardio to you girls like?

I'm lookin for ideas to do outside of the gym mostly.

I enjoyed skipping rope a few months ago...I gotta start that again. Too funny doing it though cuz I'm lame! I watch myself in a sliding glass door reflection and it's like a commedy routine...hop hop trip...hop hop hop trip. LOL At least it keeps me amused. :)

I usually just take walks around my neighborhood or else ride my bike!!! :)

YEah, I'm an elliptical girl, still can't run so it does the trick:)

Sounds good to me! Wanna do cardio with me tomorrow? :D

Elliptical trainer or in-line skating.

I love the Elliptical trainer too. I have really bad knees, so running is out of the question.

Im tend to favour the cross-trainer, but will do a 1.5 mile on the tread mill or 12 minutes on the stepper. However, I play/practice volleyball four times a week for an hour and a half, which is pretty intense and is the best cardio ever.

My question is....how long do you all do your cardio for??

I will do a max of 20 min, everytime I workout.

I run the stairs on the campus of U of T once a week. It's a great burn.

I also enjoy my spinning class in the winter months when the above can't be done! It's killer!

Holy SH*T gymchic, thats a long cardio session!

I just get so freakn' bored after 25 min, that I have to quit. I start looking around at people and the walls, the tv, everything else. I bet your in awesome shape!

I do 20 min, of interval training, 1 min moderate, 30 sec hard etc...
It seems to make time fly by, and its hard.

I only get to work out about 45 minutes per day so I squeeze whatever cardio I can in after lifting...today was only 10 minutes :( I prefer the elliptical or now that I'm 6 months pregnant I use the stationary bike with the back rest a lot. I try to read good articles to keep my mind off of how long I've been peddling or walking/running :)

I do about 35-40 mins, 6 times a week

Sounds like someone is coming off a bulkng cycle and is now into her cutting cycle? :)

I gotta respect this!!!!

[Puddles]

30 minutes if I've trained upperbody, but if I've done leg work right now I can only do 15. I'd like to work up to 45 & 30 min. over the next month or so. I can't stay focussed to read when I'm doing cardio...I tend to loose my ballance if I'm reading.

[rubberduckyo]

I'm trying to bulk right now so my cardio is down to 20 minutes 3 times per week.

I'd have to say for a new cardio twist you won't get bored with?.....Pop your favorite tunes in the cd player and DANCE! I know ya got it in ya, Mrs. P. :p

I usually do the cross-trainer for 45 min 4x a week. But I also do a kickboxing class 2x a week. Which really kicks my ass.:)
