Today marked the first day that I officially did the Body for Life cardio program. Except for the small asthma attack I had at the end, it was pretty awesome. Typically on my cardio days I do 30 minutes of interval work; low intensity/high intensity stuff.  The Body for Life program is a bit different. I have listed the official program below but its basically an interval system that consists of two gradual climbs that result in two high intensity peaks.

Now I do cardio at least 3 times a week and usually push myself pretty hard but by the time I was done with this, I was sweating pretty good. I am definitely looking forward to doing more of this in the future.

1. Warm up the first 2 minutes at Intensity Level 5
2. Minutes 2-3 move from Intensity Level 5 to 6
3. Minutes 4-5, 6-10 and 11-14 work your way from Intensity Level 6 to Level 9, maintain for one minute.
4. Minutes 15-19 work your way from Intensity Level 6 to Level 10 (High Point at Level 10), maintain for one minute.
5. Minute 20 cool down to Intensity Level 5 for one minute.
