This workout is brutal! It took me over half an hour, 31:24 to be exact. So it’s a long one, but fun.. and it changes up a lot to keep your mind active. It has 9 parts!! Actually, it has 3 parts that are alternated and one of them is skipping which is done between each of the other parts.

If you don’t have room to skip or can’t for any reason you can change this to your favorite cardio exercise of choice, such as high knees, mountain climbers, sprints, jumping jacks. In fact, if there is any part of the workout that you can not do, change it to make it work for you. Workouts can be hard and sweaty, but they should be fun too!
