Not seeing results? U need 2 BURST!

Happy Friday!  Are you getting your cardio in but not really seeing results?  Your mistake may be you need to step up the cardio.  You can do that by adding short, intense "bursts".  For example,  if you are a jogger then add in some quick sprints for just a few minutes (alternating between the jog and sprint.  Be sure to keep the jogging pace longer then those sprints as they are meant to be "quick and intense bursts"!  The sprint should be quick enough to get heart rate up, hence "burst", then go back to the jog to allow body to "recover".)   Also try to mix in some strength training which will help you burn more fat.  When working on strength training add in some quick cardio burst in between sets such as burpees (yes I hate them too!), star jumps, jump roping, jumping jacks, etc.  You get the picture right!? Challenge yourself and I bet you soon see some positive results.  Try it this weekend and make it a healthy one! :)
