Calorie Burning Interval Progression

Published:  07/16/2018

Interval training is a great way to burn more calories in a given workout time compared to steady state cardio training. 

These calorie burning intervals can be done running, on the treadmill, on the elliptical, or biking.

Have one day off between interval training.

Begin with a 5 to 10 minute low intensity warm up such as walking.

Each sprint: recovery is one round. Try to do 10 rounds.

Start with a short interval and a longer recovery period. Progress with increasing the work periods and decrease the recovery period. 

Week 1:  30 second sprint: 60 second recovery

Week 2:  40 second sprint: 50 second recovery

Week 3:  50 second sprint: 40 second recovery

Week 4:  60 second sprint: 30 second recovery
