H.i.t. Exercise Routines For Fat Loss

H.I.T. stands for high intensity training. What that basically means is it is the

opposite of jogging. Jogging is very slow and long. High intensity exercise is fast and short. There are many advantages to high intensity training as compared to exercise modes such as jogging to decrease fat and increase your cardiovascular levels. Here are just a few:

-Increase in calories burned

-Increase in metabolism over time

-Increase in muscle mass

-Decrease in workout time

-Increase in fitness levels

-Increase in lactate threshold

-Increase in VO2 max

-Decrease in resting heart rate

-Decrease in resting blood pressure

As you can see, there are numerous benefits to high intensity training.

Now, you dont necessarily have to perform cardio type of workouts to get these types of benefits. You can do these types of workouts with weights as well or ever a combination of both. Here are some examples.

Sled dragging is a staple in most strength and conditioning gyms throughout the country. I made my first one out of a tire, a piece of wood, and boat rope. It worked beautiful, but it kicked my butt every time. You can make the same thing if youd like or buy one pre made for about $200.

A simple routine you can do is run sprints with it or drag it for long distances. A good routine is to load up the sled, then walk the length of a football field. Do this 6 to 10 times and call it a day.

Another good high intensity set of exercises are complexes. Complexes are basically exercises performed one after another. Here is an example.

-Hang clean

-Push press

-Front squat

-Barbell row

-RDL

You would perform each exercise one after the other for a total of 8 times. Basically, youll be doing 40 total repetitions and thats just one set. You could complete this circuit 3 to 4 more times before moving on to something else.

As you can see, there are many ways to get the benefits of high intensity exercise without having to be on the treadmill. Anything that gets your heart rate up above 85% of your max will do the trick. Just remember to take those much needed breaks in between so you can recover.
