I am trying to get suggestions for cardio for my post lifting routine. I typically lift and finish w 20 mins of the treadmill or elliptical in high intensity intervals. Getting bored of the same old routine. Any suggestions to still get my heart pumping for 20 mins?

    ROW MACHINE! It's so good and so evil at the same time! I splurged and bought one for home-pretty reasonable.

    Sled pushes/pulls, battling ropes, medicine ball slams.

    I dance. Playlist gets changed and I dance for 15-20. Heartrate has gotten up in the 170's a few times. It's a great way to unwind too. Helps de-stress my day :)

    Just bought a rower a couple of months ago.

    Been doing 100k meters a month and just started doing 6k meters a day to make it a regular thing.

    Doing this in addition to lifting 2-3 days/wk and some circuit training (or crossfit activities) 1-2 days/wk.
