Cadiovascular exercise is ultimately how your body will burn existing fat. It is recommended to get 45-60 minutes of cardiovascular activity, 5-7 days per week.
Interval training is the best way to burn the most calories and fat, in the least amount of time. For example, start walking at a steady pace for the first five minutes, then increase your pace significantly for 30-60 seconds. Slow down for two minutes, then increase pace for 30-60 seconds; repeat cycle. Start off doing this for 10-20 minutes and increase time every week.
Interval training is simply adding a high-energy burning component to your exercise plan on an infrequent or interval basis. The goal of interval training is to give your body an unexpected jolt that requires more energy than expected. Your body will need to find more energy quick, causing your metabolism to increase and allows your body to burn more fat.
I'm so excited - I have joined a Walk Across Texas Team, this year. Individual goals are to walk 14 miles a week and within 8 weeks have logged 441 miles for our Team. I have been unable to walk on a team due to my health. However, the First Line Therapy Program has helped me improve my health, self esteem and exercise!
