When someone says they're doing cardio (especially on these boards) that usually means one of three things: Elliptical Machines (HIIT or distance), Bike Work, Running (HIIT or distance). Unfortunately, these are just 3 out of countless things you could be doing.
My purpose for creating this thread is to explore the less popular things we could be doing to fire up the ol' ticker, and maybe walk out with a few new/interesting ideas for things to do for future cardio workouts.
To get the ball rolling, here's a few 'out of the norm' activities that I like:
-Medium Distance Sprints (usually 800's and 400's)
-Speed/Agility drills (5m Box drill, Suicides/Lightnings/Ladder Sprints, bear crawl, crab walk)
-High Octane Cardio (HOC) [this refers to doing circuits of calisthetics and classic cardio movements (i.e Running, jumping rope, etc)]
