Quick Tip on Intervals vs. Steady State Cardio
By admin on Jul 9, 2010 in Health and Fitness
I’ve spoken before about how powerful interval training can be for your metabolism, but I want to approach this from a different angle today.
It’s often said that the best program you could be doing right now is the one you’re not currently on… What that means is that once your body adapts to certain stimulus it is time to switch up your routine.
This is why my quick tip for you today would be to take your current cardio program and turn it on its head. If you’re doing mostly longer distance, steady state cardio then switch over the majority of these workouts to interval based routines. Likewise, if you’re big into interval based sprints I would try adding in a few longer endurance based sessions.
This new stimulus may be just the trick you need to shock your body into dropping another few pounds of body fat for the summer!
