Cardio Round 1…
For today’s cardio, we are going to doing 30 seconds of jog in place, 30 seconds of jumping jacks, and 30 seconds of mountain climbers. We will do this for a total of 4 times. This is a great way to get your heart rate up and the blood flowing. If it is nice outside, feel free to substitute this with a run outside instead. I started off this workout with a two mile run.

Stretch
To end the workout, stretch out those muscles to prevent soreness and injury. Recovery is the most important part after working out, so make sure to take care of your body and it will take care of you. Stretch it out for a total of 10 – 15 minutes depending on how much time you have. This article has a great number of stretches you can incorporate into your post workout cool down/recovery routine!
