20 Minute Faux Fighter Treadmill Workout (Fun!)
Craigslist has been very good to me the past few months. One of the things I’ve picked up for cheap is a kickboxing bag. This weekend I put together an high intensity interval workout using the treadmill and the bag. It was awesome and fun! For sure, this workout is going to be a regular part of my cardio routine.

I was having so much fun that I went 30 minutes. I was spent but energized afterwards. Who besides people who love Rocky have punching bags? Don’t worry, you can still do it without a bag, just pretend you are Bruce Lee and shadowbox. It’s sort of like pretending like you’re on Amercan Idol in the shower but you’ll burn more calories. Forget for a few minutes how you really look and just go for it. It’s fun! If you are pushing yourself I promise you will get a great workout. Of course, if you workout in a gym this workout may be a little conspicuous.

Ooh, I like this. As someone who logs in hard time on our garage treadmill, I’m always looking for ways to spice it up. My husband just sold my punching bag on Craigslist(ha!) so I’ll be shadowboxing with this workout. Thanks for the ideas.
