Fast Weight Loss Tips

Do you want to take your
fat burning to the next level?


Have you hit a rut losing
those last few pounds?


So why are you killing yourself by
doing more of the same boring cardio?



I am going to show you how you can take fat burning to the next level with interval training to help you burn more calories.



Why should I do interval training and not cardio?


The reason is simple. Research shows that interval training is much more effective for burning calories than cardio. Cardio will only take you so far before you need to do it longer and longer to burn the fat off. Your body starts to acclimate to it and before you know it you're killing yourself with long boring bouts of it.


What is interval training?


It's not as tough as you might think. The basic idea is simple you need to alternate between high intensity and low intensity.

How do I do burn more calories with interval training?

Let's use the treadmill as an example. One way you could do interval training would be to set the treadmill to the highest inclination and start out walking up hill. Then crank up the speed to a fast walk or running speed for 45 seconds then slow it back down to a walking speed. Now catch your breath and do it again. Keep repeating this for 15 minutes and I guarantee you will burn more calories with interval training than if you simply did cardio.

For a simple how to check out my recent article on ehow.com

How to Burn More Calories with Interval Training


How can I learn more about interval training?

There are some great books out there on the subject from novice to athlete level. One of the first books I ever bought on it was:

Interval Training and Burn Fat With Anaerobic Exercise

The Interval Training Workout: Build Muscle and Burn Fat With Anaerobic Exercise



It's a great book to start off with and learn more about interval training and creating routines with it. Last I checked it was $13.22 if you follow the link which is cheaper than amazon.
