Best Way to Burn Fat Fast

Some people still think that hours on end walking/using the elliptical is the best way to burn fat. Well...I can save you a lot of time, and BORING workouts if you are ready for a more effective, fun, and fast way to burn that unwanted fat-AND increase endurance.

***SPRINTING***

The body burns more calories when doing anaerobic exercise. Even though less of those calories burned comes from fat, the overall calories burned is much higher than that of aerobic exercise. Did I also mention that sprinting is WAY more fun to do?? :) So, if anyone wants to get rid of that extra fat, and tone up your body while you're at it, I highly suggest adding sprinting to your weekly regime. I'll be posting more sprint workouts in the future but here are a couple to try for now:

Booty Builder
100m sprint (straightaway on track)
100m walk (corners on track)
Repeat 4x

150m sprint
150m walk
Repeat 2x

200m sprint
200m walk

1 lap around track walking lunges
2 laps cool down

Sculpted Lady
100m fast jog (corner) right into 100m sprint (straight)
walk 200m
Repeat 3x
Rest 5 min
Repeat 3x

Go get on that track and burn some fat! Grab a friend to join you. I promise, you'll fall in love with sprinting-and be finished with your workout MUCH faster than a long boring jaunt on the elliptical. :)
