Since I was pressed for time today, I tried out a new program that I came up with.  It was simply to do 50 reps of various ST exercises within 30 mins. It was VERY effective!! The key is that you CAN NOT stop! If you need a short break, take 5 or 10 breaths then start again with your reps, but do not stop! It really got my HR up big time and it was all lifting NO cardio and yet my AHR was 77%.  I will definitely be doing this one again when I am short on time!
