On October 28th, we did a Cardio Interval workout. It was definitely one of the most tiring classes we had. I never broke such a sweat in any of the previous classes. The workout consisted of high intensity intervals and low intensity ones performed at a 1:2 ratio for 15 minutes. A workout such as this one is a great way to get cardio into your day without spending an hour slaving away at the treadmill. It was only 25 min including the warm up and cool down.  Afterwards we did lots of stretching which felt good after such an intense exercise. The intensity was a 9/10, my heart was racing and was around 160 bpm during the cardio portion of the workout. It was definitely in my target heart rate zone. I should definitely start doing these kinds of workouts on my down time as they are so effective and time efficient. I also met someone new and did some partner exercises with Shayla. She was super friendly and we got along well. Furthermore, we graded our nutrition assignment, which consisted of scanning and interpreting a nutritional label.

If you were to do a Cardio interval workout, make sure to have plenty of water around you because it gets really intense.
