Make the most of your time with interval threshold training

August 28, 2013

Burn more fat.

Why is interval cardio threshold training the best way to get the most result in the least amount time?

Interval / cardio threshold training will increase your resting metabolic rate by creating an oxygen debt that will be repaid over a 16-48 hour period. What that means is, you’re not only burning more calories in the moment but you’re also increasing your metabolism for a prolonged period of time. Pretty cool huh!?!..

Sustain a (THR) target heart rate of 135 (BPM) beats per min

Sprint to (MHR) max heart rate of approximately 184 BPM

Back to (THR) 135 BPM

Then back to (MHR) 184 BPM

I performed this interval set 10 times in 45min on the treadmill by spiking my HR with lateral plyometrics / running backwards / boxing / dancing and skipping. It was quite a show. I encourage you to put on a show as well. Make it fun and enjoy the process, I guaranty you’ll love the way you feel!
