Low noise cardio

[BareSteel]

Hi everyone, I need to boost my general activity level outside of the gym and I'm open to your suggestions.

I like fan bikes a lot and might spring for one, but I want to be respectful of my neighbor (apartment building) and noise. Unfortunately, I think the Assault bike with chain doesn't quite match that criterion, although I enjoy riding it at the gym to warm up and cool down. Rogue Echo is quieter, but also a bit large for my body size.

Does anyone have some other ideas that fit the low noise requirement? Another idea I had was brisk morning walks or jumping rope outside. I admire boxers who look effortless doing the "boxer skip," although jumping rope incorrectly does look hard on the knees.

All ideas welcome. Winter is coming, but I am content being outside in the cold as long as it's clear of snow and ice.

Stan Efferding's 10-minute walk after each meal is a good option for you. Even in winter.
