Step it up cardio

Jane Wake's cardio exercise for intermediate fitness fans.

This is based around a step. If you don’t have a gym step, you can use any step /bench around the house, garden or park. It needs to be 20 – 40 cm in height and big enough for you to be able to step your whole foot on the step and off again.

Aim again to work at a pace where you can only string 1 – 2 sentences together. To make it easier use a lower step, or harder, use a higher step. You can also do this on the ground without a step. Keep working on your posture – lift up as tall as you can with each step. All these videos are in REAL time – just follow and GO!
