My 5 Free Workout Tips To Lose Stomach Fat

Workout Tip 1 Drop the slow boring cardio and start adding more interval training. Interval training is 1000x better at burning fat than traditional slow cardio on a treadmill or elliptical. Now you might be saying to yourself that you burn the most fat for fuel at an intensity of 65% of your maximum heart rate, which is what a regular jog can equate to. This fact is true and has been scientifically proven. However, what you don't know is because of the nature of the exercise mode, your body adapts to this type of intensity quickly, thus you burn less and less calories over time. Once you stop exercising, your metabolism automatically drops down to baseline levels. With interval training, you burn the majority of your calories from carbohydrates, but when you stop, your metabolism stays raised for hours on end. Some studies have shown it to say elevated for up to 48 hours. This equates to more calories burned and more total fat loss over time as compared to jogging.
