Do You Know What Is The Best Aerobic Exercise For Fat Loss?

Ok... It has been written so much lately and it starts to feel like beating a dead horse...

And I'm guilty of doing that too because I have written several articles about why aerobic or cardio exercises are not good for fat loss.

So... is there really a good way to use aerobic exercises for fat loss?

That is the million dollar question. I'm going to tell you about it today in this first part expose on interval aerobic training.

And you will walk away from this lesson knowing more than most folks do about using the aerobic exercises the right way for fat loss.

First of all, I believe interval aerobic training is superior to the constant, slow aerobic exercises that most people are doing now for several reasons.

First, you get a better workout in a shorter amount of time. That makes sense because interval cardio demands quick pace with slow resting paces in-between.

Secondly, interval training is less boring and more challenging which means you will more likely stick with the program rather than wimp out because quite frankly, I absolutely hate slow, plodding and boring exercises... don't you?

Third point would be that you can change the variety and speed of your program frequently so your body doesn't get used to workouts and you avoid that dreaded fat-loss plateau... you know when your attention span starts to wander and you find more interesting things to do instead of working out to burn off your fat... like watching TV or eating more junk foods...

The best part about interval aerobic training is that you will jump start your metabolism which will burn up the fat around your love handles!

And you don't even have to be an advanced fitness workout freak to use and enjoy the benefits of an interval workout.

In short, beginners are welcomed!

So, if you haven't done any workouts in a while... and you want to get started... interval workouts is a great way to get started. However, I have to caution you, if you are out of shape, you should consult with your family doctor before taking on a workout plan.

Because the most important thing is you want to get in the best shape of your life... but you shouldn't have to die for it. Now we got the safety message out of the way... let's move on...

If you are a beginner... I suggest baby steps. Start using your aerobic machine at a slow and comfortable pace for twenty minutes. But every once in a while, slightly increase your pace for thirty seconds to a minute. Doing this beginner program is interval aerobic training.

And don't get me wrong here... interval aerobic training doesn't mean super high intensity -- "bop 'til I drop" activity!

Because that would be no fun when your body feels like crap after working it out more than it has in a long time.

Moderate exercises is best when you are first starting. The key thing is to do it! And stick with it. And vary it. And use interval training to challenge your body in short bursts.

What interval aerobic training will do is similar to throwing gasoline on a fire. It will stoke your inner body metabolism into a roaring fire that consumes the layers of ugly fat.

And I should mention that research has given a lot of evidence that interval training is vastly superior to the "traditional" aerobic training. For instance, a study from the Laval University in 1994 did a comparison of these two type of aerobic trainings and concluded that the subjects that used interval training had far better results over a period of 12 weeks. They lost more fat. And that is exactly what we want for the hours and time we spend at the gym.

And the reason being for better results is because interval training causes more activity which puts more pressure on the muscles to perform which requires more energy to support the muscles which means more fat gets burned...

Whew! That's a mouthful huh?

To put this in the simplest terms possible -- interval training burns more calories!

There you go!

So quit worrying about using those calorie counters you see in the LED display on your aerobic machines. It is nonsense. And it doesn't accurately present what exactly is going on within your body and after you leave the gym.

You got that right... interval training revs up your metabolism such that it still burns calories and fat... even after you are back home and watching TV!

Ok. That's it for now. I will get the second part up soon.
