Running To Distract From Cravings But It’s Not Helping You Lose Belly Fat Or Get Slimmer?

You know a good way to beat the food cravings is to develop an exercise habit. A common one is to go out for a run...but you know you can run and not really get the benefit.

It’s kind of like you can change your cravings and still be eating sugary foods...

So if you run yourself as a distraction, here’s something interesting.

If you are still only running outside, doing your regular 10k then chances are that your fat burning potential is going nowhere FAST...

..and furthermore chances are that even though you may push yourself to bang out the occasional sprint training you don't get a much back...

Be in reality...you need to be doing what you can to lose belly fat.

Well, what if I told you that the special technique to losing fat is actually to sometimes go slower, sometimes go at your normal pace...and sometimes to go so hard that you can't even speak after it???

Yes...Here's that again...you vary up the intensity!

Why?

Well, if you mix up your training your body adapts to greater variety and hence you push though your zone of comfort and become fitter.

When you are fitter, you have more endurance, a lot more maximum strength...and your muscles either get bigger or they line-up much better...

The better you are aligned then the more easily and efficiently you are at moving around...and a lot of the time that helps get the blood flowing better and breathing...and burning fat!

But don't just take it as the truth from me!...Try it out!

So if you are running for cardio...throw in some skipping...and when you are running, try doing some sprint bursts. It’s the ticket to lose belly fat!

Sprint training is when you sprint hard for about 30 to 60 seconds, making sure it IS as hard as you are able to do then slowly jog, in fact almost walk, but you aren't walking, you are still moving like a runner.

You try to do a few or more sprints each time. It only takes about 20 minutes.

Instead of just going out and doing the same samey old run at 10k...give your brain and your body a real kick up the backside...really turn up the variation to lose belly fat in the best way you can.

Your belly fat won't like it...I can promise you that!
