AngieFitnessTV: Quick Cardio + Lower Body Shred

Quick Cardio + Lower Body Shred is part of AngieFitnessTV‘s Trampoline Extreme Workout Series. I loved this workout! This is a cardio + strength interval workout. Each interval is one minute and you alternate cardio with lower body strength exercises. I got a fun and excellent workout. This workout is intermediate level. No complicated moves but they are all fun and effective. Angie hits the lower body from all angles and finishes you off with some core work. I did this workout in combination with Health Magazines 15 Minute Trampoline Workout, which is also a cardio + lower body strength workout. Overall, my lower body was worked nicely and I got some great and super fun cardio! Love, love, love rebounding! And I especially love Angie’s rebounder workouts. I’ve been doing a lot of rebounder workouts in the past month or so and I enjoy the majority of them but this is one of my favorites so far. I’ve always loved cardio + strength workouts in which you alternate cardio intervals with strength intervals. Add in a rebounder and I am hooked! I love it!
