The key to reduce body fat
If you've tried getting rid of body fat by performing aerobic exercise
at low intensities, and you're disappointed with the results, then
try another way.
Athletes that perform work at high intensities are extremely lean.
For example, an elite 100m male sprinter will be as lean as 5% body
fat but will do little or no aerobic training. Training at higher
speeds on an exercise bike or a treadmill increases your metabolism
and fat burning hormones more than lower intensity training. The
effects of high intensity training last longer too - up to 48 hours
in some instances.
Select interval-training programs on your cardio exercise equipment
for 30 minutes and try to increase the intensity over time, not
the duration. Remember however that you cannot train like this everyday,
so 3 high intensity sessions a week is sufficient. Include longer
low intensity sessions once or twice a week to aid recovery and
improve circulation and well being.
