Aerobic Interval Training

[kind2creatures]

Aerobic interval training is by far my favorite form of cardiovascular exercise. It doesn�t matter if I�m on a treadmill, in the gym or walking on the beach. I could be alone or training a group of clients. The bottom line is that if I�m working out, part of my routine is almost certainly composed of walking at variable inclines and speeds. That�s essentially what aerobic interval training (AIT) is.

Instead of walking at a constant pace for prolonged periods of time, you simply push yourself to walk faster/harder for shorter intervals followed by less intense intervals in between.

Aerobic interval training is suppose to really kick up your Vo2max. (In other words, it increases your base metabolic rate)

I have grown more and more faun of interval training over the years. I have seen it improve my athletes overall performance in the weight room and on the field.

Personally I have used this particular training to lose about 20 pounds and bring my total body fat down from 25% to about 16%. Defiantly recommend giving it a shot if you haven't yet.

Hi Heavy TZM, I have to point out that I didn't write this article, I did find it interesting though, which is why I posted it. I have done a walk/run/walk workout that seemed to be very effective. I've done a step circuit workout which involves an combination of step aerobics and weights/pushups, etc. which I did really enjoy.

I actually didn't read the linked article. Intervals work in a similar way to circuits in regards to the energy systems utilized, which is why I suggested that to you. I don't know your fitness level, but more intense circuits are great IMO.
