Weight Loss - High Intensity Interval Training

Daily Weight Loss Report:

72.0 kg

 When I had my first try of losing weight about 13 years ago, I started with running for more than 30 minutes because I read a book which says that only when you run over 30 minutes does the body start to burn fat.

One of my colleagues, who was very fit with abs, did something different. After playing basketball together with us, he would take sometime doing high intensity interval running. He just walk slowly for a minute, then sprint for another. He told me running at the same speed for a long time is not working. I think there is some truth in what he said.

So if you want to lose fat and get strong at the same time, it is something that you should do.

Running at the same speed for a long time would make your tissue of your muscles become thinner. In the short term, it seems as if you are losing weight. But what you want is more than that. You should want to become stronger and healthy.

That is where the high intensity interval training steps in.

Mix your routine with that. You will get more out of your workout efforts.

At the beginning, you may want to do running at similar speed for a fairly long time so that you can see that you are achieving something during a short period of time. And you will get some impetus.

But when you lose some weight, you should think about change the texture of your muscles. When that happens, your muscles will become natural fat burner and metabolism booster which works 24/7. All you need to do then will be minimal. And the weight you will increase a year will be less than a half kilo.

But don't worry for the time being if you have just started. Because you will get it and come to know what to do when you come to that stage where you should kick things up a notch.
