High-Intensity Interval Training
Think you don’t have enough time to workout? High-intensity interval training may be your answer. The short bursts of intense exercise with short recovery breaks in between is one of the most efficient and effective techniques fitness professionals are using today. According to researchers from Canada’s McMaster University, 10 one-minute sprints on a standard stationary bike with about one minute of rest in between, three times a week, works muscles as well as 10 hours of continuous moderate bicycling exercise over a two-week period. By cranking up the intensity of your favorite workout from running to weight lifting that include short burst of intense exercise followed by short recovery breaks, you will burn calories without hanging out in the gym for hours.
