My treadmill died and I can’t run outdoors with the weather being so bad. What are some cardio workouts I can do that are as effective on burning total body as running?
Yoga, most aerobic exercises for at least 20-30 mins, calisthenics proceeded by warm up stretches and finshing with cool down stretches.
Make sure whatever you are doing it is high intensity and you reach 85% of your target heart rate for a period of time to ensure fat burning. Also dont forget to hydrate during and after exercise.

Take up a sport. Personally nothing beats hockey for me. You get a really good core and leg workout, and you get your cardio. But if you don’t want to go outside; run up your stairs, while skipping one step.

jogging on the spot is extremly difficult for me, lol. Jog on the spot bringing your knees as high up as possible. Pace yourself so you dont tire yourself. It’s a little harder than just jogging normally.
