Rotate Cardio Workouts with Strength Attack


I've put together some rotations for you . I've kept the rotations pretty general.

Just note as usual you should consult with your physician if you have not already done so before beginning an exercise program. The rotations provided are in no way a substitute for a full evaluation or consultation but merely an answer to the programming interest you have with the videos.

Now, getting to the workout...
If you want to focus on the weight loss portion of your goal and complement that with the resistance training so that you keep your metabolic rate up, do the cardio at least 4x's/week according to the American College of Sports Medicine or 4-6x's/wk for at least 30 min in your target heart rate zone.

Strength Attack rotation #1
Cardio exercise of your choice
Strength Attack low resistance section(1-2 sets based on your time or tolerance)
Strength Attack Core section - 2 sets
Functional Stretch

Strength Attack rotation#2
Cardio exercise of your choice(non-weight bearing might be a good body-friendly switch)
Strength Attack high resistance 2 sets
Core Attack Express(also found on Strength Attack) 1 set
Functional Stretch 2 sets

Strength Attack rotation #3
Cardiovascular exercise of your choice (given the workload go non-weightbearing for a balanced workout)
Strength Attack High Resistance
Strength Attack Core
Functional Stretch

Have a phenomenal week!

Rotate Cardio Workouts with Core Attack


I've put together some rotations for you. I've kept the rotations pretty general.

Just note as usual you should consult with your physician if you have not already done so before beginning an exercise program. The rotations provided are in no way a substitute for a full evaluation or consultation but merely a variation to the programming interest with my latest exercise video, Core Attack, "The Resistance".

Now, getting to the workout...
If you want to focus on the weight loss portion of your goal and complement that with the resistance training so that you keep your metabolic rate up, do the cardio at least 4x's/week according to the American College of Sports Medicine or 4-6x's/wk for at least 30 min in your target heart rate zone.
