Build Stamina and Work Major Muscle Groups With Low-Impact Workout

This quick-paced 20-minute class gets your heart rate up


Video run time is 21 minutes, 42 seconds.
Courtesy: LIFT session

This 20-minute low-impact workout is for those who want to improve their cardiovascular health and build muscular endurance while limiting impact.

Led by coach Troy Perrin, this beginner-to-intermediate class will get your heart rate up, build stamina and work all major muscle groups. You’ll start by using a chair for support as you swing your legs to loosen up your hamstrings, inner and outer thighs, glutes and back. Then you’ll move on to jumping jacks, squats and lunges before advancing to more complicated movements.

Remember to maintain regular breathing throughout, take breaks as needed and if you feel any resistance or pain, stretch carefully, making sure not to overextend yourself.

Please consult your physician before beginning any exercise program.
