Notes:

On the strength sets, progress up to the next level once you start hitting max recommended reps on most of your sets.  Don’t be afraid to bump up to the next level a little early in order to push yourself, just be careful you don’t overdo it and injure yourself.

On the cardio sets, pick one of the two options at your level for cardio day 1, and do the other for day 2(assuming you are able).  I actually really wanted to recommend swimming instead of running for this one, but not many people have a pool available year-round.  That said, feel free to sub in some swimming instead of the running workouts, if you can.
