Ways to Burn More Fat: High Intensity Interval Training

By Vito La Fata


If you're getting started with a workout program and starting to get your cardio sessions in order, you must not overlook the benefits that interval training provides. Whether you are actively trying to see fast weight loss or you're simply looking to take your fitness level to a new higher level, there's no question that interval training is a great way to do it.

Interval training is not only going to show benefits right from the day you start doing it, but also over the long term it can really prove to be one of the most effective exercises that you do. Let's take a quick look at what you should know about the advantages of including interval training in your workout program.

As far as benefits in the short term, high intensity interval training has a lot to offer. In the beginning, you will enjoy an increase in your metabolism. In fact, right after you finish an interval cardio training session, you will have an increased metabolic rate for up to thirty eight hours.

This means that if you do three interval-training workouts a week, separated by one day in between each session, you'll literally experience a faster metabolism throughout the entire course of the week. Since your metabolism is a key determinant of how much fat you lose, this can quickly add up to significantly more progress.

Second, another big short term benefit from interval training is that it's going to really cut down on how much total gym time you need to be doing. With interval training you'll get in and out of the gym in about 20-25 minutes, while with your other steady state cardio training workouts you may have been in there working for 45-60 minutes at a time.

As far as increasing your level of fitness goals, interval training far outweighs that of steady state cardio training. Be sure to incorporate these kinds of workouts into your fitness routine for the best results.
