Are you a Anaheim Hills resident who is sick of the same old workouts on the cardio machine at your gym? Just going through the motions while watching the fancy screen or reading a magazine? If this is you let Kai help you spice up your calorie burn and keep your cardio workout challenging! As a personal trainer in Anaheim Hills Kai will break down some fun ways using each piece of cardio equipment that shes believe are the most popular.

Bike:

Hop on its time for a virtual ride! Set your time frame to 30 minutes and enter all the specified information and appropriate level of difficulty before hitting the manual setting on the main screen. Start by going 5 minutes at a comfortable pace as your warm up segment. At the 5 minute mark raise the level up 2 notches/levels every 30 seconds for 2 minutes while and continuing at a steady pace. Once you hit the 7 minute marker lower your resistance 2 notches/levels every 30 seconds for 2 minutes. At the 9 minute marker set the level of resistance to either hard and heavy or light and easy but make sure to pedal your butt off either way for 1 minute! Continue the circuit for 30 minutes if you do this right and don’t cheat this segment should burn about 400 calories based on a 150 pound person.

Break down of time:

5 minute warm up

7-9 minute go up 2 notches or levels every 30 seconds

9-11 minutes go down to notches every 30 seconds

12-13 minute choose your level and GO all out! End of circuit

Starting the 2^nd circuit at the 7-9 minute segment since you will be warmed up by this time!

Treadmill:

Start at a level 3-5 which on most treadmills is a walk or jog and continue this as your warm up for 5 minutes. At the 6 minute mark raise the incline 2 notches/levels or 20% every 15 seconds for 1 minute and 30 seconds. At the 7:30 minute mark lower the incline 2 notches/levels or 20% for a minute and a half. At the 9 minute mark with no incline bring the treadmill to level 6 -7 and jog or run at that level for 3 minutes. Repeat circuit for 30 minutes.

Break down of time:

First 5 minutes warm up

6-7:30 minute mark raise incline 2 notches or levels every 15 seconds

7:30-9 minute mark decrease ramp 2 notches or levels every 15 seconds

9-12 minute mark run or jog. This is the end of the circuit.

Repeat for 30 minutes by starting each new circuit at the 6 minute marker since you will already be warm by this point!

Elliptical Machine:

Again you want to shoot for a 30 minute circuit. Start off by choosing the appropriate level on the manual option. For the first 6 minutes set the ramp for a level of resistance that is medium. You should be working up a good sweat during the six minutes. Since this machine has a low impact on your knees you can go a bit harder during the warm up portion. At the 6 minute mark raise the resistance level 2 notches every 30 seconds for 2 minutes, but here is the kicker, the ramp should also be raised to its highest level! At the 8 minute marker lower not only the ramp, but your resistance level back to a neutral and comfortable level and continue for 2 minutes. At the 10 minute mark set it back to the highest level while increasing the resistance 2 notches every 30 seconds for 2 minutes. At the 12 minute mark work your way backwards. You will be dropping the resistance 2 notches every 30 seconds while lowering the ramp level gradually. Repeat for 30 minutes.

This should burn close to 500 calories based on a 150 pound person!
