Challenging workout of the day

Go longer on your workout. 
If your typical workout is 30 minutes -- no shorter, no longer -- here's an easy way to challenge yourself. Twice a week, try adding 10 or 15 minutes to your cardio. You'll burn more calories and increase your cardiovascular endurance level. To adapt your workout to your higher fitness level, every two weeks up your intensity level by increasing resistance or incline on the machine or road.
Calorie-burning boost: Running 30 extra minutes on the treadmill each week can burn 400 calories. - Shape magazine
