Basically...
there's this huge like really...
I mean crazy...
absolutely gigantic myth surrounding this so called Half an hour of exercise 3 times per week business.
Each of us is led to think that If you exercise for Half an hour, 3 times per week you are going to lose weight and live a healthy lifestyle.
Which under no circumstances is wrong...
unless of course you would like to lose your desired weight goal in the next Thirty years!! The point I'm making right here is that low intensity training sessions at 30 - 45 minutes a pop does absolutely nothing at all if you are looking to lose weight fairly quickly.
I mean if you are seeking to lose body fat slow then by all means keep doing what you are doing but most people would like to lose weight fast! Wouldn't It be a lot easier if you could lose 4 times as many pounds in essentially half the time? Without a doubt it would.
You would be a fool to say no! The thing is you can do just that! Its called Interval Training or also known as High Intensity Interval Training (H.
I.
I.
T).
It truly is without a doubt the smartest way to lose weight and when merged with foods that burn extra fat your weight loss ambitions will soon come true! So what exactly is Interval Training then? Interval training can be described as a way of working out that requires relatively short bursts of "very intense" exercise, together with "recovery" periods.
(These "recovery" periods do not, however, require supportive gatherings in church basements, bad coffee, or turning anything over to a higher power.
) Just gasping for fresh air and cursing.
Think you will have to bring your favorite paperback along with you to read while you workout? Think again.
Interval Training takes absolutely no prisoners.
If you want to read a book, go to a library.
Alright so to get started your best bet is to warm up for around 5 minutes just to prevent any injuries.
You can use which ever piece of equipment you wish.
I personally always like to use the rowing machine.
Its excellent for an all-round training session.
However, you may use the exercise bike or the running machine its your decision.
You then go all out and give it everything you've got for about 30 seconds or so based on your own level of fitness.
Basically you haul ass!! (Excuse my French!) Then you rest for 30 seconds and continue doing this until you simply can't repeat no more.
Plus what you might discover with time providing you stay consistent is that you will see your body fat literally start melting off you plus your fitness levels will go through the roof! Interval Training is commonly used each day by world class basketball players and all around the globe! (no wonder they have such low body fat percentages) Plus just in case you thought I had been making this stuff up.
There are various studies that show high intensity workouts in as little as 20 minutes can be more effective than a 2 hour low-to-moderate workout like a run!
