Does your daily routine include some sort of cardio movement? If not, maybe you should re- think it and step outside of your comfort zone.
Endurance coach Miguel Lopez shares with us some cardio exercises that can be done anywhere. And the best part? No need for gym equipment. There is so much more to cardio exercises than what is conventionally talked about.
The purpose of cardio exercises, Lopez says, is to promote and strengthen cardiovascular health.
