TRY THESE 6 LOW-IMPACT CARDIO EXERCISES IN 20 MINUTES OR LESS

If you need a low-impact exercise regimen, look no further. We’ve taken the guesswork out of things by creating a 20-minute low-impact cardio circuit that’s great for everyone — bad knees, bad hips, tired body, and all.

1. Low-impact jumping jack

A good warm-up exercise, low-impact jumping jacks will get your heart pumping and muscles moving. You can exaggerate the arm movements to burn maximum calories.

2. Skaters

Channel a speed skater when you complete this move. The low-impact version omits the jump but will still make you work.

3. Squat to jab

A bodyweight squat combined with boxing will have you bobbing and weaving for low-impact greatness.

4. Standing oblique crunch

We had to throw in some core work for good measure. Ensure that your core is engaged and the movement is controlled for maximum effect.

5. Lateral shuffle

Working in both the frontal and sagittal (side-to-side) planes will make your muscular strength more well-rounded.
