Look, I know that you are smart. I know that you know that if you want to lose weight then you need to work on your diet and exercise routine. I’m not going to write an article explaining how to lose weight and end it so that the only thing that you have discovered is that you wasted your time to find out something that you already knew. Instead, I’m going to tell you how you can effectively lose weight through making efficient use of your time in the gym. Interested?
In business you learn that it is important to leverage other people, or even technology, so that they do the work for you while you are free to work on other projects. Without going too in depth, we can make our bodies work the same way. What if you could burn an extra calorie a minute doing what you usually do by simply exercising for 15 minutes that day? Although I’m not sure exactly how much more calories a minute you will burn, I do know that this process of “turbo charging” your metabolism exists and I know how you can do that. That is called being efficient because you are not only burning calories while you exercise, but throughout the day you burn more total calories than you would jogging for an hour. That’s leveraging your body to work for you towards your goals.
So, what exactly do you need to do to have these results? It’s called High Intensity Interval Training. Basically what you will do is perform a physical activity, such as sprinting in this example, and do it at 90-95% of your max heart rate. Do this for about 15-20 seconds and then slow your pace for a minute. Then do it again. Do about 15 total short sprints, cool down, stretch and walk away you are done.
Although it may not look like a lot of work reading a sample exercise routine, it is. In fact, this is probably why so many people do not do it. It is very hard and you will be tired. I have even done this to the point of throwing up. However if you put in the work, you will get the results and get them fast. In fact, a study at Laval University showed that an HIIT routine caused patients to lose weight 9x faster than those who did traditional 30-60 minute moderate cardio. For added benefits, incorporate weight training into your regimen.
If you are ready to exercise to lose weight, perform high intensity interval training. Don’t let your laziness stop you from getting you results. After every workout you will feel both wiped and accomplished. But you know what? You will not be wasting your time and you will look great in a matter of weeks provided that you take this serious. Get ready to look and feel phenomenal!
