I was busy today with a lot of work, so I only had 10 minutes to get a quick cardio workout in.
Since it was raining outside, I just grabbed my mp3 player pressed play on my Workout Muse TABATA soundtrack, and did the following rapid fat loss cardio workout indoors in the comfort of my own home:
Tabata Stationary Run- 5 minutes total
- 20 s sprint, 10 s active rest
- repeat this 30-second round 8x for 4 total minutes followed by a 1-minute rest and transition
Tabata Jumping Jacks- 5 minutes total
- 20 s sprint, 10 s active rest
- repeat this 30-second round 8x for 4 total minutes followed by a 1-minute rest and transition
No need for equipment or space! I did this in the den of my condo!
QUICK, SIMPLE, BRUTALLY EFFECTIVE!
Give it a try!
Listen and Lose Fat,

45 Hours of Aerobic Training Leads to ZERO Fat Loss Over Dieting Alone!
What's the first thing anybody does when they want to lose some pounds?
That's right, they hop on the first cardio machine available and go at the same slow, boring pace for hours at a time day in and day out.
Tried this before? So have we... AND IT DOESN'T WORK!
So, why do we all so stubbornly keep doing the same old, outdated aerobic training?
Because naturally we think that the more time we spend doing something the better the ensuing results will be.
But sometimes we just need some good old, direct scientific evidence proving what we already know to be true:
Aerobic Training Alone For Fat Loss Doesn't Work!
Landmark Aerobic Training Study:
45 minutes of aerobic exercise 5 times per week for 12 straight weeks =
Aerobic training... WE HATE YOU!
DO YOU WANT TWICE THE FAT LOSS IN HALF THE TIME?
PS- Check out what Workout Muse did for Sandra:
60 scale lbs down! From pant size 20 to size 10! From shirt size XXL to M!
"Over the past year this program has changed my life. I have already lost over 60 scale lbs in the process and I would like to continue so I can keep it off. I never thought I could lose the weight at the rate and speed I did, but it happened with Workout Muse. And yes... I will keep 'Getting my sexy back!' Thanks so much for all your help!"

Utter AC, Nieman DC, Shannonhouse EM, Butterworth DE, Nieman CN. Influence of diet and/or exercise on body composition and cardio respiratory fitness in obese women. Int J Sport Nutr. 1998 Sep; 8(3): 213-22.
The addition of 45 minutes of steady-state aerobic exercise 5 days per week for 12 consecutive weeks had ZERO EFFECT over dieting alone!
So... let's get this right...45 minutes of aerobic exercise 5 times per week for 12 straight weeks =
45 hours of wasted training!
That's 45 hours of your life GONE FOR NOTHING! That could have been extra time with your friends and family. That could have been extra time put into getting that big promotion you've always dreamed of. That could have been some much needed sleep time. That time could have been whatever you wanted it to be, but one thing is certain: you will never get that time back!Aerobic training... WE HATE YOU!
So What Does Work for Fat Loss?

Rapid Fat Loss Training Secrets
The 5 Pillars of Body Weight Training for Fat Loss
By BJ Gaddour, CSCS
http://www.workoutmuse.com
1.) Perform Total Body Workouts: For best results, you need to perform 3 total body resistance training workout per week with at least one day of rest between sessions. By working every muscle in your body each and every workout you will provide the optimal stimulus for both fat loss AND muscle growth. Not only do you maximize the number of calories burned during your workout, but you also maximize the number of calories your body expends recovering from your workout. These short-term increases in metabolism last anywhere from 24 to 48 hours after your workout. In addition, by gaining muscle, you will promote long-term increases in metabolism as it requires significantly more energy for you body to maintain new, hard-earned muscle mass. This is how you build a sexy metabolism and become a fat-burning machine 24-7-365.
2.) Train Multi-Planar, Multi-Joint Movement Patterns in Free Space: There is no body part training here! The key to a properly designed resistance training program is one that emphasizes performance and function by focusing on movement patterns. This approach provides more balanced training and prevents injuries. Each and every workout you will perform 6 total exercises consisting of a double-leg movement (knee or hip-dominant), a push (horizontal or vertical), a pull (horizontal or vertical), a single-leg movement (knee or hip-dominant), and two core movements (trunk or hip-dominant). Furthermore, these movement patterns (with the exception of the isolated core work) consist of compound, multi-joint exercises that train your body in all 3 planes of motion (e.g. a leg extension vs. a squat). This means more muscles used, more calories burned, and thus greater stimulus for both fat loss AND muscle gain.
3.) Perform Alternating Sets: Straight sets with long rest periods simply don’t make the cut here! You must perform alternating sets of non-competing exercises (e.g. upper, lower, and core exercises) in circuit training fashion so that you can get as much work done as possible for both maximal fat loss AND muscle gain in minimal time.
4.) Escalating Density: From workout to workout, your goal is to accomplish more work in the same amount of time by performing more total reps and/or sets for each body weight exercise variation with perfect form and technique. More work done means more fat lost and more muscle gained. It’s that SIMPLE!
5.) Escalating Intensity: From month to month, your goal is to be able to gradually perform more difficult body weight exercise variations that require more strength. This increase in relative loading provides the stimulus of progressively harder work so that you can stay in a true fat-burning, muscle-building mode and breakthrough frustrating training plateaus.

“I am truly amazed at the results thus far and have lost 37 pounds in going from 230 to 193 in a short span of four months. This is the first time in over 20 years that the first number on the scale is a 1. I would highly recommend Workout Muse to anyone who is serious about making a life-changing health and fitness transformation. I have more energy today than I had when I was in my twenties. I now know how to get lean and stay lean…FOR LIFE!!! I have never been more pumped to get on the bike in my life and I cannot wait to see what it feels like to ride hills without the extra 37 pounds I carried last year. My words simply do not do justice to what this experience has done for me. I honestly could not have done it without Workout Muse!”
