Tips for cardio...

Title is pretty self explanatory, just post some tips you might have to help with cardio.
What kind of exercises do you do or know of that can help your cardio?

I'm not a prof fighter but I like to do a little amateur stuff from time to time. I generally use the Marine staggered workout for increased cardio and core strengthening. Its a mixture of both high intensity weighted moves and short bursts of muscular exertion. I'm not ripped or anything but it keeps me in decent shape.

Picked it up from Men's Health about a year ago and have been using it since.

Jump rope is something people dont use enough I think, great for cardio. Also Sprints, Stairs, Plyometrics.

Shadowbox/Punching Bag for 40 mins good cardio and ounching work for speed and power.

Bear Crawl Sprints FTW! Had to do them in football on year...I almost passed out afterwards

For cardio activities, you can do dance, run, go biking, swimming, and just walking! They could be simple things that you do everyday!
