Only have 10 minutes to workout and need to get in some cardio? This 10-minute no running cardio workout is for you! Leave the treadmill behind and get some heart-pumping cardio done with just your own bodyweight in this quick and invigorating workout led by Lindsey Bomgren. Lindsey will lead you through a quick warm-up before diving into this no running cardio workout. Whether you want high or low-impact, Lindsey will provide both modifications for each move so that no matter you fitness level you can get a great cardio workout done in no time.

All you’ll need for this workout is a little room to move—no gym equipment required! Your first move in this no running cardio workout will be chair-to-star. Lindsey will show you the low-impact version and the high-impact version, which involves a plyometric or jumping movement. Plyometrics help get your heart rate up and also build muscle at the same time. Next you’ll do moves like skaters, combat burpees, and lunges with punches. You’ll perform each move with all-out effort for 45 seconds before getting 15 seconds of rest. This interval-style helps to get your heart rate up and accomplish more with your workout in less time.

Whether you don’t have time for a long jog, or simply don’t like to run but know you have to get that cardio done, this no running cardio workout is perfect for you. If you think you can’t get a solid workout done in 10 minutes, let this no running cardio workout prove you wrong. You’ll get a total-body workout that will get your heart pumping and you’ll finish feeling sweaty and accomplished in just 10 minutes!

    The burpees killed me; good thing i remember what the modification was as I missed it the first time she demonstrated, but i did the set w/o stopping, which is better than the last time i did modified burpees! What a sweaty workout for 10 minutes!🤣

We're gonna power through movements of work, 45 seconds of work, 15 seconds of rest. So, it's gonna be fast, efficient, and very fun. Let's get stated with a quick warm-up. So, we're gonna start with a good 'ol tap and reach. Pushing it across the body. Tap and reach. So, we're gonna get a little cardio vascular warmup here, it's gonna be short, but we're gonna get that heart rate high, because we're gonna get a high during this workout. 45 seconds of work, 15 seconds recover. All right, here we go. Tap it out for four, three, two, and one. Bring it center, just tap your heels. Tap, and tap.
