| About 100 years ago, when I was on the
| |
| | 30-90 second bursts of high-intensity
|
| high school track team, Coach Miller
| |
| | exercise. The fat loss of the group who
|
| "encouraged" us to do "wind sprints". We
| |
| | worked out less was nine times greater
|
| would jog around the track for a while,
| |
| | than the subjects performing moderate
|
| suddenly break into a sprint for about 40
| |
| | exercise.Of the three key exercise
|
| yards and then slow down to a walk as our
| |
| | variables...how often you do it, how hard
|
| lungs cried out "Please don't do that
| |
| | you work and how long you last, intensity
|
| again."In the beginning we looked upon
| |
| | has the most powerful effect. Your body
|
| this activity as an extreme form of
| |
| | responds to short bursts of intensity by
|
| punishment but we learned later that
| |
| | releasing a cascade of fat-mobilizing
|
| these alternating intensity workouts, now
| |
| | hormones and anti-aging growth hormones
|
| known as interval training, dramatically
| |
| | that supercharge your metabolism and burn
|
| improved our energy and performance.Don't
| |
| | extra calories for 24 hours or longer.Fat
|
| panic. I'm not recruiting for the
| |
| | loss is only one of the benefits. A new
|
| geriatric track team but there is a law
| |
| | study by British researchers tracked
|
| of nature at work here that applies to
| |
| | 1,975 healthy men over ten years. The men
|
| the young or old, fit or fat. Our Creator
| |
| | who exercised the hardest had a 47%
|
| designed the human body with the
| |
| | percent lower risk of death from all
|
| miraculous ability to adapt.Natalie, our
| |
| | causes and a whopping 62% lower risk of
|
| adopted granddaughter spent the first
| |
| | death from heart disease, compared with
|
| thirteen months of her life confined to a
| |
| | those who reported very little or no
|
| crib in a crowded, understaffed hospital
| |
| | intense exercise. The best part however
|
| in Siberia. Upon arriving in her new home
| |
| | is that these benefits were achieved with
|
| in Dallas, Natalie immediately began to
| |
| | as little as nine minutes per day of
|
| make up for lost time. In a few short
| |
| | vigorous activity.The principle of
|
| months she rushed from crawling to
| |
| | adaptation also applies to strengthening
|
| walking to sprinting like an Olympic
| |
| | your muscles, which need to be worked
|
| gymnast.Natalie's Mom and Dad will attest
| |
| | hard to become stronger. The average
|
| to the fact that her "normal" activity
| |
| | person loses up to 20 pounds of muscle by
|
| level accelerated from inactive to an
| |
| | age 70 and since each pound of muscle
|
| astounding high-energy dynamo.If you are
| |
| | burns up to 50 calories per day it is
|
| a couch potato (heaven forbid) or in the
| |
| | easy to see why "love handles" and "spare
|
| "as little as possible" exercise category
| |
| | tires" sneak up on us.Those who are on a
|
| you too can make dramatic progress in
| |
| | low carb diet (I hate the word diet) such
|
| your physical condition by employing the
| |
| | as Dr. Atkins Diet or South Beach Diet
|
| interval training concept. And it will
| |
| | your exercise has a distinct advantage
|
| take as little as three 29-minutes
| |
| | over the low-fat dieters. Low carbers
|
| sessions per week.A Canadian study
| |
| | have a limited amount of glycogen (stored
|
| followed exercisers who burned 300 to 400
| |
| | sugar) available and so the body utilizes
|
| calories per session. A control group
| |
| | the fat on the belly, hips and other
|
| matched the same routine one-third of the
| |
| | unwanted places as the primary sources of
|
| time. Two thirds of the time they
| |
| | energy during exercise.Think you're too
|
| exercised for a shorter period during
| |
| | old or out of shape to get started on
|
| which they burned only 225-250
| |
| | "wind sprints"? It's never too late to
|
| calories-but they included occasional
| |
| | start feelin' great!
