COMMIT TO
                                                      CARDIO.



                                         Cardio refers to any movement that helps
                                         increase heart rate and circulation. Cardio
                                         exercise can help boost metabolism, help
                                          support a healthy heart and can help you
                                      recover more quickly after strenuous exercise.

                                              Commit to doing 2-3 days of cardio
                                          activity per week. These sessions should
                                            be 30-60 minutes in length and ideally
                                                 performed without interruption.

                                       However, if you are in a time crunch, you can
                                        break cardio into 15 minute sessions. Find
                                         an intensity that feels like a 5-7 on a scale
                                             of 10 with 10 being extremely difficult.

                                            RECOMMENDED
