Build Stamina & Lose Weight With This Intermediate Cardio-Based Bodyweight Workout

Most men are spending countless nights in the gym trying to get shredded. It is not a bad thing. However, overall, it can be demotivating and time-consuming. This is the case if your weightlifting workouts do not shred fat as fast as you would want them to. You no longer have to break your sweat and back to the gym if your goal is to lose some pounds.

Once you are bored with the same old session and you need to burn off those cookies you couldn’t resist, you need this cardio endurance workout. It’s an intermediate-level workout that takes you through different levels of intensity to help you burn more calories and make your workouts a little more interesting.

You’ll alternate between a baseline, moderate level, and a slightly higher intensity level by changing your settings and using this perceived exertion chart to match how you feel to the suggested perceived exertion levels. This workout can be done on any cardio machine or other activities.
