High intensity cardio at the gym

[bud_2005]

It sounds like high intensity cardio should be used for fat loss. I used to run sprints but now its getting colder out and I would prefer to move it indoors. Where in the gym do should I perform high intensity cardio w/o looking like a goon?

jump rope? it's pretty good if you can keep the rotations up for 30 minutes or longer. 80-120 rotations per minute i think it was.

why are you worried about what you'll look like in a gym?

Yeah, who cares?

When I do unusual exercises like deadlifts, Turkish get ups, pistols, etc. I've had lots of people come up and ask me "Hey that looks like a cool exercise, what is it?"

some people have 'gym cred', or some sense of self-consciousness/dignity

fortunately I have neither.

(and even if I did have any it'd disappear entirely when I say I've got Whitesnake on my music player)

I'm thinking of the looks I would get running 50 yard sprints around the gym track. I know I shouldn't care though

That's what my Journey/Steve Perry/Foreigner/Bad English mix is for.....
