My achilles are both fucked, so I can't run or do burpees. I don't know how to swim, or ride a bike. Stationary bike is mind-numbing.What form of cardio is left for me? Are kettlebell swings a good option?
I don't know if rowing machine is even considered cardio but try that
What happened to your Achilles?

I want to do stationary bike or elliptical for cardio but I have a running background and it takes so much effort to get my HR above 120 with those machines

>>76713456rowing living with the bike>kettlebell swingsThe danger in moving weights for cardio is that your heart has to push blood through tensed muscles which triggers an adaptation to strengthens the heart, but the walls of the heart thicken inhward and shrink the amount of blood the heart can contain.swings might not be bad in this way, but swings also might not be good enough as cardio to counteract this effect if you're also doing grinds with weightlifting and adapting to those.
>>76713541Seconding this.>>76713456I’d say learn how to ride a bike, buuuuut depending on how fucked up your shit is some of the reflexive things you’ll do to save yourself from falling might be a bit extreme.It just depends on how bad your situation is.Just how bad is the situation, anon?Also, swimming is fucking awesome but sometimes it’s difficult or expensive to find a pool.>honorable mention goes toYou can learn how to unicycle.If I could teach myself how to unicycle as a drunk as fuck teenager you can do it as a functional adult. And also falling off it isn’t as spaghetti-y because you just kinda slump forwards or backwards instead of side to side.
