Common questions

What can I do instead of the Short Stride Run?

The Rope Jump, Recumbent Bike and Dumbbell Burpee deliver the same conditioning stimulus. Swap them minute for minute: whatever duration or intervals you planned for the Short Stride Run apply directly.

Do these burn similar calories?

At a matched effort level, yes, total work drives calorie burn more than the specific tool. Pick the option you can push hardest on with joints that feel good.
