Get It Up, Your Heart Rate That Is: Shorty Intervals
Recent research out of Australia has found that eight seconds of intense cardio followed by twelve seconds of moderate cardio for twenty minutes enabled women to lose three times as much fat than those who went about their cardio at a steady pace. It's basic interval training, but in very, very short intervals.
When doing interval training, you need to work with your own Rate of Perceived Exertion or RPE and work between easy (1-3), medium (4-7) and hard (8-10) amounts of exertion.
