No Repeats HIIT Cardio Workout (No Equipment) is the kind of no repeat workout I really enjoy. Heather Robertson really mixed things up in this workout. If you have been doing Heather’s workouts as long as I have, then all of the exercises will be familiar to you. She broke this workout down into thirds. This workout contains 45 intervals and each section of the workout is separated into 15 intervals. Between each 15 interval section you get a longer break. It contains 43 different exercises The reason it is not 45 exercises is because 2 of the exercises are done on one side of the body so you repeat them on the other side of the body. I really enjoyed this cardio workout. I burned 279 calories and I got some great and relatively intense cardio. I felt like Heather inserted some recovery level moves every so often so that the intensity varied. Which was okay with me! This is not a low impact workout; however, Heather does include a mix of both high impact and low impact exercises in this workout.
No Repeats HIIT Cardio Workout (No Equipment) is 38:30 minutes; 2:45 minute warm up and 4 minute stretch. Equipment: fitness mat.
