# Add small weights to your workout. Many cardio exercises simply workout your legs. Add 1 to 5 lb. (0.5 to 2.5 kg) hand or wrist weights. Pump your arms, sway them back and forth in exaggerated motions or do press ups or bicep curls while on an elliptical, cycling or treadmill machine. You can also get a weighted bar and hold it over your head for intervals of 1 to 3 minutes, in order to increase the intensity of the workout and work your arms, obliques, back and abdominal muscles. Make sure you have good balance before trying this. | # Add small weights to your workout. Many cardio exercises simply workout your legs. Add 1 to 5 lb. (0.5 to 2.5 kg) hand or wrist weights.
