Yes, but frankly on their own, not very effective, but added in with other Plyo stuff, done maybe 2-3 times a week would be good.

You really need to do 20 minutes of steady cardio to get much benefit. Can you do 20 minutes of burpees? It is a pretty strenuous exercise.

Are you trying to get bigger or lose weight?

You need to have a different routine every day of the week. You cant do the same routine every time if you want to see results.

1 - leave the calf raises out for god's sake

2 - leave that day as is but order as such: squats paired with bench press...romanian deadlift paired with rows...push press paired with prone plank

3 - add this day in...rack pull 4 x 6 piated with chin up...push up paired with inverted row 3 x 12 (find a hard push up variation)...side plank paired with reverse curl

Anything that raises your heart rate for a prolonged period can be considered "cardio". Resistance training done properly can be cardio.
