The Beginner’s 5 Minute Cardio Routine

Here’s a beginner cardio respiratory routine that I tried myself when I was too out of shape to try what others offered. Just like for all exercise routines I advice that you consult your physician if this routine would be appropriate for you.

               
                        Routine:

                                1^st Minute: Run at a comfortable pace

                                2^nd Minute: vigorous walking

                                3^rd minute: Run at a comfortable pace

                                4^th minute: vigorous walking

                                5^th minute: sprint until the minute is done or until you’re winded

It’s easy to follow, so no more excuses. Do it for one week. Your aim in this routine is to start running and be consistent. Set a schedule to make it regular. If you promised yourself to do the routine 3 times of 5 times a week, keep it. Start by working on keeping your self-commitment and over all fitness will follow.
