WORKOUT: BLAST FAT IN 20 MINUTES

It's no secret that HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) is one of the most efficient form of workouts today. 

Recent research suggest that HIIT training significantly improves the "overall health outcome" (including burning belly fat) of individuals compared to steady state exercise like jogging. 

Some of HIIT benefits include:

1. Decrease Blood Pressure

2. Stabilizing Blood Sugar Levels

3. Lowering Cholesterol

4. Improves Mental Health

5. Time Efficient

Although there are several variations of HIIT, the key is to focus on short highly intense movements that will increase your heart rate 80-95% of its maximum capacity with a workout period of 15-25 minutes 3 times a week.
