If you've ever struggled to run on a treadmill for an hour a day, you're not alone! Doing that is enough to make anyone burn out fast and hate jogging. But what if I told you there's a better cardio routine you can do that will actually burn fat, instead of giving you the feeling of treading water. Here's the truth about cardio:
It's time to throw out your old way of doing cardio, this way is faster and delivers better fat burning results!
If you want to lose abdominal fat quickly, you're going to have to change the way you look at cardio routines. The highly recommended "Hour per day on the treadmill" won't do much to get you closer to your goals. The #1 word you should focus on when thinking about burning fat is "intensity." The greater the intensity in your workouts, the faster you will see results.
Instead of doing the normal slow jogging cardio routine, ramp up the intensity and you will achieve far greater results than you could ever hope to accomplish with slow jogging.
Here's how: When you sprint you activate almost all the muscles on your body. And since you are demanding so much of your muscles, they will break down. This leads to an increase in your metabolism for 1-2 days after your sprints while your body works to repair the damaged tissue. This will help you lose abdominal fat at a steady rate, even while you're sleeping.
This will help you burn fat at a much faster rate than your typical treadmill cardio routine. When you do a slow jog for so long you are actually burning off your muscle tissue, which in turn lowers your metabolism, making it harder for you to lose fat and keep it off.
To lose abdominal fat permanently, you will have to change your eating and exercising habits. It will require a lifestyle change, but it's worth it. Not only will you be more healthy and have more energy, but your body will look great and your spouse will also greatly appreciate the sacrifice you're making!
It's important to keep learning from here on out too. You should make it a goal to find out the truth about how your body works and what exercises are actually healthy and beneficial. There's a lot of lies and worthless products out there that companies will try to push on you, but just know that there is no miracle cure. To lose the belly fat it will take hard work and persistence, not a miracle pill or magic program.
