There is no better time than now to begin a modest, low impact cardio workout. Not only does it get your blood pumping, it helps with mobility and coordination. Here are two exercises you can begin:

These Low-impact jumping jacks will get your heart pumping and muscles moving. You can exaggerate the arm movements to burn maximum calories.

To get moving:

  • Start by standing with arms down at your sides.
  • Step your right foot out, and at the same time bring your arms up above your head. Keep
  • your weight in your right foot throughout this movement.

  • Return to your starting position.
  • Immediately step your left foot out. Once again, with your weight on your left foot, bring your arms above your head.
  • A bodyweight squat combined with boxing will have you bobbing and weaving for low-impact greatness.

    To get moving:

  • Start by standing with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and your arms down
  • at your sides.

  • Squat down, ensuring your chest is up, butt is back, and knees are out.
  • Stand up, and when your legs are extended, throw a cross-body punch with each arm.
  • Squat down again, stand up, and punch.
