It&#8217;s designed to burn our your legs and leave you flat on the ground gasping for more, and it did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I worked out after work and before watching the Capitals play (and win!) tonight against the Panthers. I knew it was going to be a rough workout tonight. Cardio Fix is no relaxing stretchfest. It&#8217;s an all-out assault on your heart rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today was a dark, rainy day. It was the perfect setting to lay in bed, curled up with a good book. It started our dark and didn&#8217;t change as the sun went down. And there&#8217; something harder about working out once the sun goes down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I had some errands to run after work so it wasn&#8217;t until nearly 7pm that I started the 30 minute workout. Though all I really wanted to do as crawl under a blanket, and sleep away the evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wanted to skip working out tonight. It was dark and I had a headache. I wasn&#8217;t feeling well and it&#8217;s only one day. But I stuck it out and made it through. Truthfully, I&#8217;m afraid to skip a day. If I do, I might skip the next and the next. Then I&#8217;m looking at starting 2020 not having done anything since now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I need to keep the streak going. I need to keep going every single day. I need to do something that burns calories and gets me moving. There are many days I never leave the house, so I need to make a point to workout and get my heart rate up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the year I&#8217;m tackling health issues and this is going to contribute to my success. Weight is a problem. It&#8217;s going to only cause more of them as I age. So I need to do something about it now. And break my bad habits before I get to a point where I can&#8217;t anymore. Where my decades of bad decisions catches up with me and I pay a high price.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cardio Fix. It includes burpees and lunges.
