Weight Loss Problem
The biggest challenge at a global level today is weight management. In most countries, around 25% to 35% of the population is already over weight or fat. This figure is set to cross 40% at a global level and specifically in countries like the USA, India and China.
Exercise Failure for Weight Loss
People across the World have been trying out various modes of exercise for weight loss. Most do not result in weight loss. Even if it does, you put on weight again. So there is a dilemma we are facing.
Some things work for certain individuals and some work for others. However, there is one sure shot solution which is explained below. It is called HIIT.
HIIT Or High Intensity Interval Training
HIIT is a form of exercise which has developed over the recent few years which enables sustainable weight loss which is relatively healthy, stable and reasonably fast.
In HIIT, one does not have to exercise for a long time. Twenty minutes a day is all that is required. We need to warm up for a few minutes in our preferred form of cardio vascular exercise like running, spinning, cycling or even dance and zumba.
Then we have to get the heart rate up very rapidly and keep it there for a minute. Then we slow down for two minutes and keep repeating the cycle till we cross twenty or thirty minutes. The ratio is normally 1:2 between high intensity and low intensity.
Example:
5 minutes warm up on the treadmill
1 minute running at a speed of 10 or 12 kmph
2 minutes walking at a speed of 5 or 6 kmph
Repeat the cycle 3 or 4 times and cool down for 5 minutes.
Practice this at least four days a week and combine with healthy and sensible eating. Your weight will start coming down. Write to me for weight loss consultation or any wellness related issues on gaurang@abhisti.com or call on 9892248408
