Following a series of five bodyweight warm-up exercises, you'll be asked to perform a series of intervals on the rowing machine. Interval workout sessions like this one are superior when it comes to building aerobic capacity compared to traditional steady state cardio exercise.
*IMPORTANT* When you get to the final exercise, the rowing machine, I want you to perform sets of intervals. Meaning, row at a maximal effort for 30-seconds followed by easy rowing for 1-minute. This is known as a 1:2 work-to-rest ratio. Repeat this sequence 6 times for a total of 9-minutes.
If you have the ability to take heart rate via an Apple watch or wear a heart rate monitor - then do so! Make note of your heart rate before you begin your rowing intervals and again when you're done with all 6 intervals. See how quickly your heart rate recovers 1-minute post exercise. The faster you get below 100 bpm and back to resting levels the better cardiovascular shape you're in. Monitor and track this over time.
