I'm a little unclear on this so I'm hoping someone can help me understand.
Can calisthenics be used for cardio? Like if you have a 5 or 6 exercise circuit you go through for 30 minutes? I understand heavy squats won't work for this purpose but what about easier exercise like lunges, pushups, mountain climbers, jumping jacks and the like? How would the "cardio" effect differ from Strength Aerobics?
What effect would such a workout have on cardio/heart/health?
Thanks.
