hi my name is sean i am a beginner i just got a treadmill whats the advised heart beats per sec/min to lose burn fat??

[KellygonzalezFITNESS]

@2553shean the higher your heart rate the more calories you burn, but the body utilizes fat mostly when you're performing low to moderate activity. Higher intensity exercise relies more on stored glycogen (carbs). Burning more calories is the ultimate goal when trying to lose fat. Interval training is an effective and efficient method. For HR: 220-age=Max HR x 75% for intervals hit 80-90% for rest periods drop to 65% or until you feel recovered

I have a question: I am a beginner, just starting out HIIT. I do not have the "interval" selection on my treadmill to toggle back and forth. So, I end up using 15 seconds to go from my recovery pace to the high intensity pace and then another 15 seconds to go back down...should I start my 30 second intervals once I have come up/gone down to the respective speeds or does my interval start when I start pressing the up or down button? Hope the question makes sense. Thanks

@rpsfu83 Since you are a beginner I recommend including the acceleration into your interval time, but not including the deceleration into your rest time. Once you become more efficient start the intervals once you are at full speed. Good luck!

I've been doing this for a while now, starting from a fitness level of ZERO (lol) I can do 20 mins of 1 min rest & 1 min HIIT (the treadmill doesnt have another option) max speed is only 8.5 but my resting phase was just a walk of 3.9..I'll try the resting stage at a slight jog. My weight loss has plateaud and I cant seem to break it no matter what I try..any other ideas? The treadmill is my main workout as Im clueless about other things. Great vid!

[KellygonzalezFITNESS]

@wildone106, I suggest wearing a heart rate monitor- for rest work at 60-65% and HIIT work at 80-90%, as you get in better shape you'll be able to hold a higher rate for a longer period of time. This allows you to burn more calories. If you can't increase your intensity through speed try increasing the incline and duration of intervals and total workout time. The bike is also another great alternative, plus it's low impact

So sexy..do you skip rope?should def incorporate that in your training if not. Burns the same amount of calories at a high intensity plus it gives you and upper body workout as well.

@KellygonzalezFITNESS

can you please get some behind you shots during your treadmill run? I just want to make sure I have the proper posture when running. thanks

I do 4 minutes at 65% and 2 minutes at 90-95% until i complete 30 minutes, wich makes 6 sprints. Its sucking up my belly fat so damn fast. Its awesome.
