When doing Cardio, I’m sure you have all heard of your "THR" (Target Heart Rate, 220 - Your Age x 0.6). Although, it is a fact that by achieving this Heart Rate you will burn pure fat with minimal muscle loss. In order to Maximize You’re Results it is necessary to be entering and exiting this Zone. By doing that, not only will you be burning more Calories you won’t have to exercise as long!
Take a look at my simple example of a great Interval Routine that can be applied to most Aerobic Equipment.
Example:
NORMAL - 500 calories/ 45min
INTERVAL - 500 calories/ 28min
Your new cardio plan:
1. Start Cardio on any machine
2. 2 min of max effort!!! EXPLODE OFF the line!!!
3. Rest for a Full Minute!!! Try and stop completely if possible.
4. Repeat till Goal Calorie number is achieved!
I hope you all enjoy this new radical form of Cardio! Should help you begin to work Smarter, rather than Harder.
