Favorite cardio workout

One step at a time keep climbing towards your goals.

What’s your favorite cardio workout to do during your workout session? Do you do cardio before or after a workout?

I like to do an incline walk on the treadmill but I’ve recently been adding the stair master for a different style of cardio which the stair master has taken me out at times but I do feel a difference from walking on a treadmill and using the stair master. I feel more of my muscles when doing the stair master than I do on the treadmill so I am trying to trade the treadmill with the stair master as a cardio.

Cardio workouts are essential for maintaining cardiovascular health and enhancing physical performance. The treadmill and stair master are two popular cardio machines, each offering unique benefits. While the treadmill provides a controlled running or walking experience, allowing for adjustments in speed and incline, the stair master offers a more intense workout that targets the muscles in the lower body more effectively. Studies suggest that using the stair master can burn more calories in a shorter time frame compared to steady-state treadmill workouts, making it a great choice for those looking to increase workout intensity. It's also important to consider your fitness goals when choosing between these two machines. If you aim to improve endurance or train for a running event, the treadmill might be your best bet. However, if you're looking to tone your legs and glutes or add variety to your routine, incorporating the stair master can be highly beneficial. It's also great for those seeking a low-impact option that still delivers a robust workout. Ultimately, your favorite cardio workout should align with your preferences and fitness objectives. Consider incorporating both into your weekly regimen for an effective and well-rounded approach. Don't forget to ask your friends or gym community about their preferences and tips for best results!

Yes, I love incline on the tread mill or the stair master. I get really tired on the stair master though lol

I never thought I would say it but the stair master is my favorite work out machine lol. I’ve had the best results so far with it. It can be super hard but very worth it!
