I'm far from the model of fitness, but one thing I think is going to help me this fall is that often my "cardio" is with weights! It's amazing how out of breath and high the heart rate can get in a short amount of time doing things like thrusters or wall balls. Where I think that is going to help me is I can recover much faster than I could before. I'm hoping that helps me this fall.
This. Moving heavy stuff, with a high heart rate, ain't what most folks do.
