We all know that cardio is a great way to scorch calories, but doing strength moves (like lunges, step-ups or squats) that engage your larger muscle groups can also get your heart pumping while giving your muscles a varied workout. Today, I have three exercises that engage the upper body muscles while your lower body is performing some variation of a squat—be it the traditional version, a plie or with a tiptoe raise.
Grab a fairly light set of dumbbells, a little free space and get ready for a total-body workout!
If you only have time for cardio or weights, which do you choose and why?
