I know it's getting proper chilly outside but fun fact you burn more calories when your body is cold in its attempts to stay warm. Anyway back on topic here's a great cardio blaster.
Burn calories and blast fat fast with the best cardio workouts on the treadmill, elliptical, or bike -- or using no equipment at all!
60-Minute Cycling Hill Workout
• Find a hill that takes about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes to climb. Warm up for 15 minutes, moderate effort.
• Hill climb 1: Stay seated, use moderate resistance. Recover by pedaling downhill in easy gear.
• Hill climb 2: Stay seated, increase resistance. Recover by pedaling downhill in easy gear.
• Hill climb 3: Sit halfway up the hill, then stand, using moderate resistance. Recover by pedaling downhill in easy gear.
• Hill climb 4: Sit halfway up the hill, then stand using hard resistance. Recover by pedaling downhill in easy gear.
• Hill climb 5: Stand the entire way using moderate resistance. Recover by pedaling downhill in easy gear.
• Hill climb 6: Stand the entire way using hard resistance. Recover by pedaling downhill in easy gear.
• Ride at a moderate effort for about a half hour, then cool down for 5 minutes at easy effort.
Calories burned: 635
Beginner option: Do four repeats: one seated, one half-seated, one standing (moderate resistance), one standing (hard resistance).
Tip: When climbing a hill, push all the way back on the seat to gain extra leverage.
