Melt away Fat with Intervals

By Tina Gee | Monday, October 2, 2006, 05:21 PM

Looking to blast off some stubborn fat? Interval training takes you back and forth between intense and moderate exercise all in one session.

For instance, why not jog on the treadmill for three minutes between each set while you train your upper body? This will reprogram your body to burn body fat as fuel as opposed to dietary calories alone. In fact, training with intervals can increase how many calories you burn every minute. You can jump from as little as a 0.06 calorie burn per minute to 4.8 calories in a minute after just six short weeks of intrval training.
