Ways To Make Cardio More Fun & Exciting!
No matter how much you love exercising, cardio sessions can get extremely boring and tedious.
While a bit of cardio each day is recommended by the American Heart Association for optimal heart health, people often think this means they have to hit the elliptical for an hour or drag themselves to the dreaded StairMaster to meet their cardio needs! 🥵
These classic forms of cardio aren't really necessary if you are not into them. Remember, more fun when doing cardio means you’ll put more effort into it. More effort = better results.
At the end of the day, if you enjoy the treadmill and Stairmaster, have at it, homie! But if you're looking for other ways to have fun while getting your heart going, here's a list of unique ways to enjoy your torture. Haha!
QuiAri Energy ⚡

Create a Killer “Cardio Pump Up!” Playlist 🎶
Well duh. If you aren't already grooving to jams while working out, then what planet are you living on? 🤔 😂
Whatever cardio activity you chose to do, make sure you have your playlist ready. Music makes everything more fun! Music with a fast beat will subconsciously help you move! Most modern pop and dance songs stick to 100-120 BPM range, which is sure to get you moving while having fun and barely even noticing it!
Don’t forget the headphones, fam. 🎧
*Alternative options: listen to a podcast, news radio, or talk show.
A compelling podcast with a great story or interesting interview could help distract and make time go by faster. Whether you prefer to laugh, learn about history, or discover something new, there's a podcast designed for listeners like you.
Whatever you need to do to distract yourself and dive into something more enjoyable, the easier cardio will become.
🚶 Walk… Before you Run 🏃
All right – so you're just getting into working out you say?
Well, this doesn't mean that you need to start three miles jogs right off the bat. If you’re new to exercise, start off with light cardio such as going on walks or leisurely bike rides through a park.
Once you get more comfortable and have built up some endurance, then you can start jogging or running and so much more!
Wear Comfortable Clothing 🎽 🩳 👟
Please make this mandatory! Cardio is hard enough without wearing uncomfy clothing. You must be able to breathe and not overheat.
Try a New Cardio Class 🧘
Hot Yoga.
Kickboxing.
Zumba.
Muay thai.
Trampoline.
…Pole Dancing…
If you hate your usual form of cardio, the chances are slim that you’ll keep going back to it for your workouts. No need to continue doing something that you do not enjoy. Trying a new class could be a lot of fun. There are tons out there that are so enjoyable that you don't even notice the pain, and still get the gains!
Plus, you might meet some new workout buddies! This brings us to our next topic…
Have a Workout Buddy 🏋🏻 🏋️♀️
Oh, so you found a like-minded bestie in your new pole dancing class? Awesome! There’s no stronger motivator than a buddy working out with you. A good workout partner can keep you from ditching workouts and slacking on your workout intensity.
Plus, a partner can keep things fun and interesting! It’s someone to communicate and laugh with rather than work out alone! Friends can make even the dullest exercise a fun time! Who knows, maybe your new buddy has a competitive side, and you can make a game out of your workouts. Who can run a mile the fastest? Who can get to 100 push-ups first?
The important takeaway from all of this is that any type of cardio is good cardio and will help improve your health! Once you find what you love, stick with it, don’t give up, and continue taking QuiAri products to help you achieve all of your fitness goals.
