Cardio Training, done properly — from anywhere in Des Moines
Cardio is the most abused word in fitness — treated as either punishment for eating or a mystery to avoid. Maddy programmes it as a skill. Your plan builds an aerobic base with steady, genuinely easy sessions, then layers short interval work once the base holds, using effort-based targets so you never need lab testing. The World Health Organization's guideline of 150–300 minutes of moderate aerobic activity per week is the public-health floor the plan is built to clear — and then structure takes you past it. Low-impact options — cycling, incline walking, rowing, swimming — are programmed for anyone whose knees or schedule object to running. Cardio is paired with strength work, not substituted for it, and check-ins watch your resting heart rate and session effort to confirm the engine is actually growing. The goal: stairs, flights, and long days stop being events.

The method — how Maddy coaches this
- Aerobic base first: steady sessions at genuinely easy effort until the base holds.
- Interval work layered in later, with effort-based targets instead of guess-the-pace.
- A low-impact menu — cycling, incline walking, rowing, swimming — for joints and preferences.
- Programmed to clear the WHO's 150–300 weekly minutes of moderate activity, then build past it.
- Paired with strength training, never substituted for it; resting heart rate tracked as the scoreboard.
Who this is for:
- Anyone whose heart rate spikes on two flights of stairs and wants that fixed.
- People who dislike running and need low-impact options that still build a real aerobic base.

Common questions
What is the minimum cardio that actually counts?
The World Health Organization's guideline is 150–300 minutes of moderate aerobic activity per week. The plan is built to clear that floor with sessions that fit your week, then adds structure so fitness keeps improving past it.
I hate running. What are my options?
Running is one tool, not the definition. Cycling, incline walking, rowing, swimming, and low-impact circuits are all programmable — the plan uses whichever your joints and preferences accept.
Will cardio burn my muscle?
Not in the doses a structured plan uses, and the plan keeps strength training in your week precisely to protect muscle. The two are paired, not traded.
