Hi Friend,
Cardio sucks. Who wants to spend endless hours pounding away on a treadmill or spinning their wheels on an exercise bike? Yet that’s the advice you'll commonly hear at your gym when folks want to burn unwanted body fat.
But here’s the thing: there is a much more effective way to blowtorch your blubber and do it in a fraction of the time. In fact, studies show how you can burn up to 9 times more fat by exercising less!
To highlight this fat-burning firebrand at work, researchers in Quebec’s Laval University divided cardio exercisers into two groups: long duration and repeated short duration.
The science boffins had the long duration group cycle 45 minutes without interruption. The short duration group cycled in multiple short bursts of 15 to 90 seconds with rests in between.
So what do you think happened?
Well, the long duration group burned twice as many calories, so you would naturally expect that they would burn more fat — yes?
However, when the researchers recorded their body composition measurements, they were in for a big shock: the interval group showed the most fat loss. In fact, the short duration group lost 9 times more fat than the endurance group for every calorie burned!
Yes. You read that right…
The interval group burned up to 9 times more fat by exercising less!
How is that possible?
The secret lies behind the power of short, high-intensity bursts to burn fat.
You see, a really cool thing happens when you exercise this way. You ramp up your metabolism thereby creating a fat-melting after-burn. This is why the repeated short duration group scored so well in their lab results: their high-intensity efforts continued to affect their metabolisms long after they had stopped exercising.
This is fantastic news for anyone who wants to shed unwanted body fat. And the best part? You’ll be able to enjoy these fat-busting benefits in just a fraction of the time.
Thanks for reading.
Until next time,
Squat for Glory!
