About 4 months ago, I could barely get through 15 minutes. Now I do it once a week, 40-45 mins a superset.
That kind of cardio is definitely difficult. I always have a ton of respect for people who do high intensity routines like that. I used to be a cardio guy, but I've given it up and go for the glamour muscles now. I'm too skinny for that. Which is what I tell myself because those workouts would destroy me. Lol
Ha, no kidding! It definitely has helped sculpt my core, though. Like, this is after week 8 of my "super month set" routine. These pics are literally 30 days apart. Took one this morning, the other on April 1st. I also feel MUCH stronger. I'm going for the glamour muscles in the fall. But RN, I literally feel as though I could complete a 5k without breaking a sweat.
