Exercise intensity and fat loss

Now that you are working on your food diary, let's look at exercise. I always hear people saying that they want a great program to lose weight. Well, the best program is the one you will do and that you will do with intensity. Here's the myth buster. We alwayd thought that long and slow cardio was the way to burn fat. Well, it helps but it should not be the corner stone of your plan.

Here's the truth, a bad program done with intensity will yield better results than a perfectly design program done at low intensity. Let's face it, if you give yourself time for a workout, wouldn't you want to get the maximum out of it? So why not burn the maximum number of calories by going as hard as you can? And research shows that you will lose more body fat inthe long run. Just don't forget to keep an eye on your food.
