Fat Loss Interval Training

Author Craig Ballantyne
I wanted to take this time to explain the interval training portion of the program. Because it is very important for fat loss, but it is also a little bit complicated for people that have not done interval training before. Now generally I recomment that people use the bike for interval training. A stationary bike is nice and easy because you can transition between hard and easy exercise quite simply. And also you don't have worry about falling off a treadmill. You don't have to worry about advanced sprinting. You'll need to actually warm up for sprinting. With a bike it's very simple. It allows you to do a lot of work, by increasing the resistance, and taking it off quite easily. Let me show you an example using the treadmill for interval training. What I like people to do is to do interval training right after their bodywieght circuit. If you aren't fit enough, you can do interval training, or cardio training on off days instead. We do interval training 3 days per week. So it fits in nicely right after the strength training cricuits, or other bodyweight workouts that you do later on in the phase. If you want to do it on other days, that is fine as well. But make sure you take full day of rest each week. So we are going to do a couple of the interval workouts from the preparation phase in this next segment. Click on the above video to watch the entire Interval Traing for Fat Loss Video.
