HOW DOES HIIT EXERCISE BURN FAT?
  • Now that were well into New Year resolutions for
    2016, many people are trying to determine whats
    the best way to lose fat. Many people tend to
    believe that cardio is the most effective way to
    lose weight running, jogging, swimming. But many
    personal trainers beg to differ. High-intensity
    interval training (HIIT), also called
    high-intensity intermittent exercise (HIIE), is a
    form of exercise that alternates between hard,
    short periods of anaerobic exercise and rest
    periods. HIIT workouts are anywhere from five
    minutes to a half an hour.
  • First, its important to understand how to burn
    fat. To burn fat, you must have a deficit of
    calories into your body compared to calories
    burned. The idea behind increased HIIT exercise
    is that your body keeps burning fat even after
    youve finished your workout. Because you are
    pushing yourself at such a high heart rate, your
    muscles dont oxygenate fast enough and your
    metabolism continues to work to replenish this
    deficit. Also, by elevating your heart rate,
    youre strengthening your heart and building up a
    cardio tolerance.

  • Besides burning fat, HIIT preserves your muscles
    by stimulating muscle growth. Muscle cells burn
    more fat than regular cells and oxidize fats
    therefore, the more muscle you have, the more fat
    you will burn. Cardio helps to speed up fat loss,
    but many people neglect to add strength training
    to their routine, which sometimes can have the
    reverse effect and lead to muscle loss. If youre
    not in shape, then long duration cardio will
    increase your cardiovascular fitness. HIIT will
    burn more fat and increases your cardiovascular
    fitness more than long-duration cardio does.

How to Exercise Using HIIT
  • Because HIIT can be stressful on the body, its
    important to push yourself but not over-do it. A
    good guide is
  • Start your workout with two to three minutes of
    warm-up, followed by five minutes of stretching.
  • Do 10 to 30 minutes of HIIT.
  • Do two to three minutes of cool down, followed by
    five minutes of stretching.
  • HIIT can be practiced both in and out of a gym.
    If youre exercising on a machine, its important
    to choose a resistance that allows you to control
    your speed you want to be able to achieve a
    sprint. All your favorite cardiorunning, jump
    roping, bikingcan be replaced with high knees,
    fast feet, or an exercise that will get your
    heart rate up fast.

HIIT Exercises You Can Try
  • Think heart rate, heart rate, and more heart
    rate! The main objective of HIIT, and why its so
    effective at burning fat, is to get your heart
    pumping! Try the following exercises to replace
    your typical cardio session.
  • Sprints Outside is better, but if you must use a
    machine, a treadmill is best. Alternate between
    one-minute jogging and half a minute sprinting.
    Do this for fifteen minutes.
  • Jumping Jacks A great way to engage many muscle
    groups and get your heart rate pumping. Stand
    straight, with your arms to your sides and feet
    apart. Then jump with your feet out to your side
    while your arms go above your head. Do five sets
    of two minutes or the time of three of your
    favorite songs.
  • Jump Squats Incredibly effective way to build
    muscle. Stand with your feet shoulder-width
    apart. Move into a regular squat, engaging your
    core, and jump up explosively. Be sure to land
    with body back into the squat position. Thirty of
    these will have your quads burning.

A Fast Fat Burning Alternative
  • Try high intensity interval training as an
    effective fat burning tool in your fitness
    toolbox. You can reduce the amount of cardio in
    your exercise routine and increase your free time
    with time-efficient HIIT workouts. Theyre easy
    to add since you dont need any equipment, they
    can be done anywhere and they require less time
    to achieve the same calorie burn as steady pace
    cardio exercise. HIIT pushes your body as hard as
    you can go, peaking your metabolic rate and
    helping to strengthen your body. Like all forms
    of exercise, your HIIT workouts should get harder
    the longer you do them constantly push yourself
    to do better or more than the previous time.
