Get Your Heart Pumping with this HIIT Arms and Abs Workout
Today’s…
Cardio…
For today’s cardio, we are going to be doing a 1 mile run to start it off. Play around with the tempo. Increase the speed after a minute or two. You can also play around with the incline of the treadmill if you are using one for this run. 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 10 minute run outside instead.
We will also end todays workout with a half mile run. Make this run a little more intense then the first 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.
