We are all extremely busy, we have work, families, children and pets to think about. So finding the time to work out and take care of ourselves can be difficult. When you do get to the gym you want to make sure that you are getting the most "bang for your buck", you want to be sure that your time is well spent.
So, what is the most effective way to burn the largest amount of calories in the shortest amount of time? The answer is interval training. A new study in the Journal of Physiology found that about 20 minutes of high intensity interval training provided the same benefits of longer exercise sessions that focused on endurance training. As CNN reported, “The study suggested that quick, high intensity interval training may represent an alternative to endurance training to improve metabolic health and reduce the risk for chronic diseases.”
So, if your training for a race or you just love running on a treadmill, GREAT keep doing it. But, if you are looking to lose weight in the shortest amount of time, interval training is the way to go.
