Building Better Bodies Fitness

Burning fat is not much of a fun experience for anyone. You may mentally sike yourself up for an hour a day routine at the gym moving from cardio machine to cardio machine, but in the end you either give up or go into a coma from boredom. A better fat burning option is using the High Intensity Interval Training, also known as HIIT

What is HIIT?

HIIT is several short, but hard exercises followed by short and less intensive exercises. Some of the benefits of HIIT are that it doesn’t take a lot of time to complete a workout and it doesn’t take a lot of time to start seeing the positive results. The drawback is that these types of workouts are tough.

Research studies reveal, however, that HIIT programs tend to burn nine times the number of calories burned in traditional cardio workouts. Shorter, more intense workouts with far better results than longer, more boring workouts; it seems like a fair tradeoff.

How HIIT Works

A HIIT workout causes the heart rate and energy consumption to spike, which triggers the release of huge amounts of growth hormone and other fat burning and muscle growing chemicals into the body. Intense workouts, such as HITT, also turn the metabolism on full blast, so a higher rate metabolism continues for several hours after your workout is over.

It’s not to say that HIIT is an easier way to lose weight and burn fat because it is intense. HIIT does, however, payoff faster and more effectively than any other type of cardio workout.
