Interval Training or turbulence Training
I recommend you at least read this section but understand . . . . This training is not for everyone!Interval training is very intensive training. Now you can modify it somewhat to fit your fitness level. In other words, the sprint sessions in the running portion can be less intensive than recommended but more intensive than your normal run, or jog.
The rest sessions can be longer.
To attempt intervals, you must be in good physical condition. A doctor should clear you. You need to be ready for some serious exercise.
So why should you read this session?
Because as you exercise, if you really want to kick fat burning into high gear, intervals will do the trick. Even on a small scale, such as running a little faster for 10 seconds during your jog - then going back to your jog at regular pace to recover. So knowing a little bit about intervals will help you overall as your fitness level increases.
That's the basis of intervals. Increase intensity for a period of time and follow that with a recovery period. Repeat.
On a small scale - walk at a brisk pace. After about 5 minutes (warmup period) jog for 10 or 15 seconds. Then begin walking again. Maybe for 2 or 3 minutes. Repeat.
You've heard of intervals and now you have an idea of what it is all about.
