The best form of cardio to do the day after Thanksgiving to help you burn that turkey dinner off!!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Hope yours was as great as mine was! Like most people I participated in the gluttony of our traditional Thanksgiving holiday. This got me thinking what would be the best form of cardio to help burn tons of calories in the least amount of time, so you can minimize the effects of thanksgiving on your waistline and still allow you to spend a little more time with family and friends. Most people would answer just do an hour of cardio. Yes that could work, but the most effective way to burn tons of calories in the least amount of time would be Interval training. Doing 20-30 minutes of Interval training can burn twice as much calories as doing an hour of traditional cardio. Not only will your burn rate increase while your doing your Interval cardio training, but your body will be burning more calories up to two hours after you stopped doing cardio. There are many ways of doing Intervals, the most basic way is to sprint for one minute on the treadmill or elliptical, then jog or walk for two minutes, and repeat the sequence for 20-30 minutes. Hope this makes you guys feel a little less guilty after your Thanksgiving meal!
