Unfortunately I can't run right now, I have a bad knee from running my last half marathon. I am doing a lot of strength training and some cardio intervals but I need to amp up my cardio. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    You can look up HIIT on You Tube. It's free and I've heard good things about HIIT. I did Insanity but with a knee injury you may want to stay away from that.

    I was going to say insanity too, but yes it's hard on the knees... Maybe swimming is an option? that burns quite the calories too!

    I've been doing Jillian Michael's Body Revolution with success but I HATE the cardio. So I tried to find something intense that was low impact since the first phase of BR is easy on the joints. I've been using the Cardio Axe from Brazil Butt Lift and is it kicking my butt with no impact. Turbo Jam also has 2 really great cardio programs and Charlean ALWAYS has a low impact modifier. Her workouts are definitely intense!
