Wakeup Workout: Anaerobic Workout

GET IT! Try this great routine to change up your cardio plan, increase agility and improve you body's ability to do short, intense bouts of activity. Maybe I a m partial to this type of training because I grew up playing football, but the science shows anaerobic conditioning has TREMENDOUS metabolic and fat burning benefits for every one, not just sprint athletes. Anaerobic conditioning kicks your body high into fat burning gear by creating what's called EPOC (Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption) or more commonly known as the After Burn (no it's not an STD). EPOC is when your body is at an oxygen debt after your workout and it burns extra energy trying to return the body back to a normal resting state. As your conditioning levels increase, you want to get yourself to doing 15-20 minutes of anaerobic conditioning at least a couple times a week. GET SOME!
