Today we’ve got all the LOW IMPACT CARDIO you love, paired with the STANDING ABS (aka, balance practice and fall prevention exercises) you need. This one’s perfect for women over 50 who want to burn calories and release endorphins while working to improve balance.
Here are the FAST FACTS: Level TWO | ALL standing, NO jumping, NO equipment | BURN 175 – 250 calories
We’ve got really manageable 20-second intervals, but there’s no rest at all, making this workout a super sweaty (but still doable!) challenge.
Enjoy this workout barefoot (if appropriate for you) for maximum effectiveness. There are no transitions to the ground and no jumping. Includes a warm up and cool down.
Check out the list of exercises below, then follow along with me in real time with the full length video.
