What inexpensive,intense exercises, in home/outdoors, in VERY few minutes, makes best muscles + heart + lungs?

Q: I am a 63 years old grandpa, 80kg, 1.73m (176 lb, 5′ 9″). Years ago, I enjoyrf jogging for some 10 minutes a day. I don’t mind if the exercises are very intense and almost “painful”, but I hate gyms and expensive, sophisticated machines, and I don’t persevere if the daily exercise routine takes more than 20 or, at most, 30 minutes.I was thinking on 20 min very intense isometrics (or elastic bands, or simple drumbells) on odds days, and 15 min jogging (followed by three 1 minutes sprints) (sometimes barefoot, at the beach close by) on even days.I have no patience on stretching, therefore I preffer exercising just after coming home from my workdayb (I am a teacher), when the muscles are already warmed up.Any suggestion?Thanks a lot.Hélio, from Brazil.

A: Try jump roping. This is an EXCELLENT way to work on cardio and upper body strength, which is why boxers do it. Try the jog step (essentially jumping with one leg, alternating between left andright legs). You can also do criss-crosses, and double unders (jumping over the rope twice). However, these moves take practice, so be patient. But when you do start jumping at high speeds, you’ll really feel it! It’s also a crowd pleaser! For weight lifting, I would recommend researching supersets, exercises involving multiple body parts in 3 or 4 motions. This reduces dramatically the time it takes for working out. Hope this helps. (Try looking up videos of jump roping if you don’t know what I mean and just keep at it). It took me about 1-2 weeks of practice to really start jump roping well.
