High Knees

 

Stand with your feet hip-width apart and start running in place by lifting your knees high towards your chest. Use your core to drive the motion and keep your upper body strong. Ensure your knees come up to at least hip level for maximum benefit.

Butt Kicks

 

Start by jogging in place. Focus on bringing your heels up towards your glutes with each step. Keep your chest up and use your core to maintain stability. This exercise not only elevates the heart rate but also stretches the quadriceps muscles.

Jumping Jacks

 

Stand tall with your feet together and arms by your sides. Jump your feet out to the side while simultaneously raising your arms above your head. Quickly return to the starting position and continue at a quick pace to keep your heart rate up.

Mountain Climbers

 

Start in a plank position with your hands and toes on the floor. Quickly alternate driving your knees towards your chest. Maintain a straight line from your head to your heels and engage your core throughout the movement to avoid putting strain on your wrists or lower back.

Side Shuffles

 

Begin in a standing position with your feet shoulder-width apart. Bend your knees slightly and shuffle quickly to the side. Once you reach your desired distance, shuffle back to the starting point. Keep your abs engaged and your body low to increase the intensity.

Stair Climbing

 

Utilize a set of stairs, running up and down without using the railing. Focus on maintaining a steady pace and use your legs' power to propel yourself upward. This is a simple yet effective cardio exercise that also strengthens the lower body.

Burpees

 

Start from a standing position, squat down, and jump back into a plank position. Quickly jump your feet back towards your hands and explosively leap into the air, reaching your arms overhead. Land softly and repeat the sequence with fluidity, using your leg muscles and core.

Lateral Hops

 

Stand on one side of an imaginary line. Keeping your feet together, hop to the other side, focusing on lateral movement. Engage your core for balance and keep your knees slightly bent. Land softly on the balls of your feet to reduce impact on joints.

Jump Rope

 

Jump rope is a classic cardio exercise. If wrist pain is a concern, perform light jumps focusing on height rather than speed, and try to keep your upper body relaxed to reduce strain.

Walking or Jogging

 

Walking or jogging is a tried-and-tested cardiovascular activity that can be done almost anywhere. Focus on maintaining a good posture with your shoulders back and core engaged. Start with a pace that is comfortable for you and gradually increase your intensity.

Premium Medication you can trust

Our weight loss medication is delivered straight to your doorstep from a state-licensed pharmacy within our reliable network, ensuring you receive your medication when you need it.

Each pharmacy in our network undergoes rigorous third-party testing through FDA and DEA certified labs. These tests focus on four key elements, ensuring both safety and efficacy for our treatments.

How to Combine Cardio Exercises with No Wrist Pain

 

High Knees and Jump Rope Combination

 

  • Burst of Cardio and Coordination: Start with 1 minute of high knees to raise your heart rate, followed by 1 minute of jump rope. This combination allows for a dynamic start and keeps your routine engaging, emphasizing endurance and coordination.

 

Butt Kicks and Lateral Hops

 

  • Dynamic Warm-up with Core Stability: Perform 1 minute of butt kicks to warm up your muscles, especially the quadriceps, then transition smoothly to 1 minute of lateral hops. This pairing develops both leg flexibility and core stability while improving lateral agility.

 

Jumping Jacks and Side Shuffles

 

  • Full-Body Engagement: Alternate 1 minute of jumping jacks with 1 minute of side shuffles. The constant upper and lower body movement ensures a high cardiovascular rate, while side shuffles enhance lateral movement and overall leg strength.

 

Mountain Climbers and Stair Climbing

 

  • Intensity and Strength: Begin with 30 seconds of mountain climbers to activate your core and rapidly increase your heart rate. Follow with 1 minute of stair climbing to utilize the leg muscles and build cardiovascular strength efficiently.

 

Burpees and Walking/Jogging Intervals

 

  • High-Intensity and Recovery: Execute a set of burpees for 30 seconds to work on explosive power and cardiovascular endurance. Then, switch to walking or jogging for 1 minute as active recovery, balancing intensity with a steady pace.

Got questions? We have answers.

Do your plans include prescriptions and medications?

Curex plans cover everything from reviewing your medical intake to providing prescription medications, with free shipping included. There are no extra or hidden charges. Prescriptions are issued only after a medical provider reviews your information to confirm that the medication is suitable for you. Our service includes continuous support and regular follow-ups to ensure your treatment stays on track.

Our clinicians may order labs and additional medications for you, which would not be covered by the plan but for which you can use your insurance.

Please note: Compounded medications are tailored to individual needs or used in case of shortages, but they are not FDA-approved for safety or effectiveness. A prescription is required. Results may vary from person to person.

What medications do your providers prescribe?

We prioritize a personalized approach to your health. If your medical provider prescribes medication, options may include GLP-1 treatments such as compounded semaglutide (the active ingredient in Wegovy®* and Ozempic®*). Our providers prescribe only combination treatments not available at your local pharmacy that may include vitamin B12, etc. to help you achieve your goals faster.

Depending on your treatment goals, other medications such as metformin may also be considered. We recognize the importance of managing side effects, so your care plan might include medication to ease symptoms like nausea. Your well-being is always our top priority!

Please note that compounded medications are customized to meet individual patient needs and are not FDA-approved for safety or effectiveness. A prescription is necessary. Results may vary from person to person.

Curex and its pharmacy partners do not have any association with Novo Nordisk.

Will I be prescribed semaglutide if I sign up?

Your health journey is unique, and we tailor our care to match. Any prescriptions, including semaglutide, will be based on the expert assessment of the medical provider matched with you through our platform. You can trust that your treatment plan will be personalized to fit your specific needs. And if semaglutide is not prescribed, we will provide a full refund.

What is compounded medication?

Compounding involves creating customized medications to meet the specific needs of individual patients. For instance, a patient may require a liquid version of a medication that is only available in tablet form. Pharmacies can also compound medications using FDA-approved drugs that are on the FDA’s shortage list.

These compounded medications are made by state-licensed pharmacies that follow both federal and state regulations, including quality standards. However, when compounded in accordance with these laws, these medications are not subject to FDA approval and are not evaluated for safety or effectiveness.

Is compounded medication the same as generic medication?

Compounded medications differ from generic drugs. Generics require FDA approval by demonstrating bio-equivalence to the brand-name drug. In contrast, compounded medications are not FDA-approved. They are made based on a personalized prescription that may not be commercially available elsewhere or when a drug appears on the FDA’s shortage list. Compounding pharmacies must have the proper licensed facilities and comply with state and federal regulations before dispensing these medications.

Is insurance required?

No, Curex doesn’t require insurance. We offer clear and simple pricing, along with affordable medication options, making it easy and accessible to take care of your health.

Can I pay with an FSA or HSA card?

Yes! You can pay with your HSA or FSA card.

How much does treatment cost?

Semaglutide is priced at $149 for your first month, and $299 per month thereafter. This includes unlimited messaging with your medical provider, access to compounded medication at any dosage (if prescribed), and a user-friendly portal where you can manage your care plan and track your progress.

These prices do not include sales, promotions, or special offers.

Can you prescribe Ozempic®* or Wegovy®*?

Our providers focus on personalized medications and dosages that aren’t commercially available at your local pharmacy. While we don’t prescribe Ozempic®* or Wegovy®* directly, we may prescribe treatments containing the same active ingredient. These medications are specially compounded for you by a licensed pharmacy to meet your specific needs.

Are video visits with a provider required?

Our providers will review your information 100% online. Depending on where you live and the specifics of your medical history, our providers may require you to have a video visit or asynchronous visit via text message. If prescribed, you’ll get unlimited online access to message your provider as needed for follow-ups, adjustments, and answers to your questions.
