And best of all, each FitDeck features \u2018no-equipment\u2019 exercises that require only your body weight to perform.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->Each FitDeck deck is just like a regular set of cards; it includes 56 playing cards but unlike spades, hearts and diamonds, the card features illustrations and instructions describing over 50 different exercises, stretches, and movements. Each FitDeck card includes key information such as the name of the exercise, what\u00a0muscles it works,\u00a0instructions, and the ability level with suggested time and\u00a0repetitions.\u00a0While you can workout for as long or as short as you want to, performing the exercises in about 12 cards takes approximately 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>All you have to do is select a card from the stack and perform the exercise. While it&#8217;s that simple, the versatility of the cards offer hundreds of different combinations for changing up your workout routine. Here are just a few things you can do with the FitDeck:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cross train by shuffling the cards<\/li>\n<li>Get in some cardio by opting for a &#8220;no rest&#8221; policy in between cards so that you&#8217;re swiftly moving from one exercise to the next.<\/li>\n<li>Take a few cards with you on your way to the running track. Run for 15 minutes, take a FitDeck card and perform the exercise, then head back to the track to complete your jog.<\/li>\n<li>Double or nothing your workout by guessing the color of the next card &#8211; if correct, skip a card &#8211; if wrong, do it\u00a0two times.<\/li>\n<li>Do 10-in-a-row by performing ten\u00a0repetitions of each exercise no matter what the exercise is. For a better cardio workout, skip the rest in between exercises.<\/li>\n<li>Cycle\u00a0your workout by performing the first card at the beginner level,\u00a0the second\u00a0card at the\u00a0intermediate level, and the third card at the\u00a0advanced level. Then repeat the cycle.<\/li>\n<li>Perform the selected card for\u00a0one minute straight, then immediately go to the next card, with no break.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Check out DietsInReview.com&#8217;s review of the <a title=\"fitdeck\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/fitdeck\/\" target=\"_self\">FitDeck <\/a>exercise playing cards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re someone who approaches their fitness routine\u00a0with\u00a0a gambler&#8217;s\u00a0need for flair and spontaneity, then read on.
