Cardio complexes! Ready?!
All you need is your body FULLY warmed up, your mat and a bottle of water nearby!
Each complex will be 3 minutes duration!
Simply perform each exercise for the number of sets and repeat for the duration of the 3 minutes!
The challenge is to PACE yourself for the 3 minutes! This is very different than HIIT where we are hitting it hard for only the 20 or 30 seconds work period!
You can let me know if you find this more challenging overall than a HIIT specific workout! I find both as challenging but in different ways!
Any exercises that involve higher impact will be shown with a low impact version (however not lower intensity!)

Finisher!
100 x SHOULDER TAPS!
BRACE your ENTIRE body for that finisher! But 2 main considerations when performing those shoulder taps… try to resist movement in the hips such as rocking and don’t hold your breath!
You will notice as you work through the workout, each complex alternates between lower body focus, upper body focus or full body with lots of burpees on that journey!
Go at your own pace! Your pace is entirely specific to you! If you are moving at a pace that is challenging, yet mostly sustainable for the 3 minutes, PERFECT!
Enjoy every complex!
