Weight loss never seems to work on your time table. Sometimes you need to get in shape for an event right around the corner. Luckily, some cardio exercises help maximize weight-loss gains. Whether you can patiently work at a slow pace or want something quicker, there is an exercise to help you lose weight fast.
Long, Slow Distance
Long, slow distance, or LSD, workouts improve your endurance and give your muscles steady work. LSD workouts involve running for long distances at a pace where you can comfortably talk to others. You don't need to be sweating to make quick weight-loss gains; this consistent and slow exercise enables you to stay energized and keep moving. LSD workouts are also a supplement to more intense cardio and help the body recover when done on different days. These exercises are as simple as spending an hour slowly running a 1/4-mile track.
Tempo Workouts
Tempo workouts serve to change your body's oxygen and metabolism relationship. According to Runner's World, these exercises optimize your energy use and enable you to do more intense exercises for longer amounts of time. Doing tempo exercises twice a week for 20 minutes can improve weight loss as well as endurance. Doing these exercises is beneficial, but be cautious; overtraining can lead to fatigue. A basic tempo exercise is a 4-mile run; do the first and last miles at a conversational pace, and the miles in between at a quick pace
High-Intensity Interval Training
High-intensity interval workouts are like tempo workouts and increase your body's consumption of energy, leading to more calories and fat burned over time. According to "Self" magazine, these workouts can heighten your capacity to burn fat. However, exercise caution when doing high-intensity exercise. Overtraining with this method can lead to muscle damage, so it should not be done as a primary fitness routine. When combined with LSD workouts, your body is able to increase gains using intense exercise supplemented by active but more restful activities. Built Lean recommends a novice workout of five to 10 cycles of one minute sprinting and two minutes of walking or slow jogging. Any kind of cardio can be used as long as you alternate between high-intensity and low-intensity exercise.
Health Considerations
Cardio is a useful tool for health and fitness, but must be done safely. Exercising too much without rest days or low-intensity exercise such as LSD can lead to physical injury. Caloric intake is important as well; eating right can maximize weight-loss gains, but you must eat to maintain energy and prevent nutrition issues. Fruits, vegetables and fiber-rich foods can aid weight loss in a cardio regimen. Set safe goals for weight loss; Fit Day recommends losing about 1 pound per week.
