Ok so I've plateaued so I'm mixing it up. Jump rope, rowing, spin class, swimming and skating each week. Anyone else trying this with success?

The only reason I try to do a variety of cardio is to stave off boredom. If it makes you work harder and burn more calories then I suppose it would be "successful" for weight loss, but personally I don't rely on cardio to manage my weight just in case of illness or injury. I use it for health reasons only.3

45.min 430 calories skating. Good for quads, glutes, core and stability muscles. The big surprise is how much it loosened my shoulders.1

Don't know what frozen shoulder is.
My pain is located under my left shoulder blade. Somehow swinging my arms as I skate for 45 min is loosening muscles and flushing the lymph system in that area. I just wasn't expecting it.1 -
Swimming this weekend. Lost another pound in the last couple days. I had a sore ankle switching to swimming gave me an extra couple days recovery for it.0

Gym is closed and it has been nice to get out and ride. Cycling is a great way to work the legs.1

When I first got into fitness, all I pretty much did was cycle. Loved it. Obviously that was before I knew the benefits of cross training but I lost a significant amount of weight, toned up my legs and hiney, and just felt all around amazing.

I subscribed to a bunch of YouTube channels and tried a bunch of different routines. I'm trying Sydney Cummings 30 day May challenge to see how I like it.0
