When I say, how to do cardio without a treadmill, I’m referring to any traditional cardio machine. So if you think you can only get a good cardio workout by using a a treadmill, bike, or an elliptical machine, this video is for you.
When it comes to cardio, it’s important to keep your cardio workouts fresh and embrace variety.
What does cardio mean?
I define cardio as any type of exercise or movement that elevates and strengthens the cardiovascular system.
If your heart is beating heavy during your workouts, it’s cardio. Regardless if you’re on a treadmill, running outside, or lifting a dumbbell, if it elevates and strengthens the cardiovascular system, it’s cardio.
I want to show you how to get in an amazing metabolic cardio workout, using just one pair of dumbbells.
How To Do Cardio Without A Treadmill
As you will see from my heart rate, you’ll be super surprised to see how high your heart rate increases with one pair of dumbbells.
Here’s how to complete this metabolic training dumbbell workout.
Complete 4 sets of exercise A, resting as little as possible between sets.
Since this is a metabolic training workout, the goal is to complete all the reps and sets, as fast as possible, keeping excellent form throughout.
A. Dumbbell Clean and Press
Sets: 4
Reps: 15
Notes: You may think the dumbbell clean and press is typically a strength building exercise, and it is, but watch how high your heart rate gets, while completing 4 sets of 15 reps. You’ll probably be upwards of 90% of your maximum heart rate. At one point my heart rate reached 97% of my maximum heart rate. I bet you don’t train in that zone when you’re on the elliptical machine.
B. One Arm Dumbbell Snatch
Sets: 4
Reps: 20/arm
Notes: In order to jack up your heart rate, the amount of weight does not have to be super heavy. The reason is simple. The one arm dumbbell snatch is a total body, compound exercise, that moves the weight through a long range of motion. By moving the dumbbell through a long distance, it effectively increases your heart rate. So select a weight that is challenging, based on completing 20 reps/arm, with good form.
C. Single Arm Dumbbell Swing:
Sets: 4
Reps: 20/arm
Notes: Swings are one of the best metabolic boosting resistance training exercises you can do. Not only is it a great cardio exercise, but it also incorporates many muscles in the posterior chain, i.e. the hamstrings, glutes, and back.
D1. Speed Squat
Reps: 10
Rest: as little as possible
D2. Forward Lunge
Reps: 5/leg
Rest: as little as possible
D3. Push Up:
Reps: 10
Rest: as little as possible
During this workout I burned 837 calories.
Plus, with these metabolic training style workouts, you not only training your heart and burning fat, but you’re also maintaining and building muscle.
I hope this workout proves to you how to do cardio without a treadmill.
Thanks for watching and keep Living Lean.

Great workout!
How about if you do kettlebell swings?
Do you wear a fitness tracker/smart watch and if so which brand? Many thanks
this is the perfect workout for people who travel!!!
Hi Brad and Jess from England congrats on your new arrival ! What sort of cardio do you recommend for someone who has si joint problems
Just tried out this work out and BOYEEE!! that workout worked me I couldn't even complete the forward lunge due to yesterday's squats work out. 590 calories burnt is not bad for first time doing this workout. Do you have any more workouts like this?? if so please advise. Thanks again!
Hi Brad, how long did it take you to this workout?!!
Trying to switch up my routine this year. I have always stayed away from the stair climber because I don’t want a bigger but or thighs! I like to keep them small. What’s your thoughts on doing HIIT on the stair climber? You think it Will make a woman’s inner and outter thighs and butt bigger? Because I do not want that at all! I am pretty lean but with great muscle tone and tend to build muscle easily.
I noticed this a while ago when doing strength training that my fitbit would often go in the "cardio" zone if I didn't rest between sets. Great video. Hi Kyla and Cody.??
Love this idea!!!!
How to remove body hair
Wowwwwww super, what i do with out you guys
Great stuff but can you do these in between your 3 -4 split , wouldn’t use dumbbells over work your muscles
I've been doing cardio for two years without any equipment, other than when I am lifting weights every other day!
Hi Brad, quick question about the DB push press and BB push press. The DB variation starts with the DBs down in more of a deadlift position whereas the BB variation starts with the bar at hip level. Is this correct?
I’m on the treadmill now ??♀️
I did this workout and I only burned 836 calories. ?
