To your muscles, everything is resistance. Cardio is low resistance with a repetitive focus. There are circuit classes, HIIT classes, and Barre classes are the most fast paced. But its all about your effort and control! In addition to the workouts, try some light, low-intensity cardio like walking 15-30 minutes a few days during the week.
