Burn 300 Calories In 20 Minutes!

You have all the time you need (no matter how busy you are) to get in a great workout. All it takes is 20 minutes of hard work. Research has proven what I know from personal experience: you can accomplish your cardio workout goal in 20 minutes per session by increasing and varying the intensity.

It is called High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). It is the best way to burn fat in the shortest amount of time.
This training method is also used to increase speed and VO2 Max.

In my post on March 24, I talked about how I burned 300 calories in one 20 minute cardio workout. Pick your favorite cardio activity---treadmill, elliptical, stepper, bike, etc. and get after it. I prefer running outside because that forces me to generate all of the momentum and work against gravity and ground forces. The wind also plays a big part in making the workout tougher. When I'm feeling really good (or crazy!) I'll do this workout on stadium steps.

This type of intense cardio session will also raise your heartrate faster and keep your metabolism elevated longer after your workout. So, you will continue to burn more calories in the hours after your workout. And, you will also burn more subcutaneous fat and visceral fat.

HIIT your workout hard today!

  1. Hi Mark - I have used the HIT method of cardio training many times. It works, but it will test your definition of intensity. Keep the good stuff coming.
