35 Minutes Steady State Cardio

Steady state cardio is simply a cardio workout that is continuous. Any cardiovascular/aerobic activity that is sustained for an extended time (usually starting at 20 minutes for beginners and 45 minutes for more advanced) at a fixed intensity.

Here's a good rule of thumb: If you can easily hold a conversation with the person on the treadmill next to you, consider increasing intensity. .

Now, pick your cardio: running, swimming, biking, walking, walking on incline, elliptical or the stair stepper. Outdoor: Hiking, stroller walks, jogging, biking, etc.
