Reach your fat loss and weight loss goals---sooner! Shorten and intensify your cardio workout! Long, slow cardio sessions wastes time and eats away at your muscle mass. Short, intense cardio sessions also burn more fat and calories during and after your workout!
I'm talking about interval cardio sessions that are 20 minutes or less! If your cardio sessions are 45 minutes to 1 hour, stop doing your cardio that way (if you want to make progress sooner)! You will attain more fat loss and weight loss sooner with short, intense cardio sessions.
Here is an interval cardio session that I often do (or something similar): --Jump rope, fast, 1 minute
--Walk 1 minute
--Mountain climbers, fast, 30 seconds
--Walk 30 seconds
--Jumping Jacks, fast, 1 minute
--Walk 1 minute
--Run-In-Place, fast, 30 seconds
--Walk 30 seconds
--Bodyweight Jump Squats, fast, 15 seconds
--Walk 1 minute
Repeat this circuit 2 more times.
If you don't like these types of exercises, then pick exercises that you like. I know that jump squats won't work for those with knee or back problems. As long as you change it up and keep it interesting, you will will make progress--sooner! Stay tuned.....
