15 Best Cardio Exercises You Can do at Home

The good news about working out at home is that you don’t need much equipment to get going- all you need to do is make the time and create some space in your living room and voila! You have yourself your own mini gym. 

I recommend you choose an exercise that suits your current fitness level. Remember, over time you can progress yourself to challenging exercises but it never hurts to start small and advance yourself after you’ve mastered the basics.

It’s important to get the fundamental movement patterns down first before trying the more advanced plyometric stuff. You also want to avoid injury at all costs so check your ego at the door and start with the basics if you're unsure. 

I’m going to break the best cardio exercises you can do at home, starting with beginner level first then the more difficult and advanced.
