Just in time for Heart’s Day, here’s an approach to exercise that’ll get your ticker in tip-top shape. “With High Intensity Interval Training (HITT), you push yourself hard for one minute, then bring the intensity down for one minute, then start all over again for a 30-minute cycle,” says Olney, MD-based personal trainer Beth Novick. “The best part is, you control just how hard and how easy you want to go.”

 

Bonus: Intervals have also proven to increase endurance and blast away fat three times faster than steady cardio. Here’s a workout that’ll really get your heart racing.

 

30 minute HIIT Workout

Hop on a treadmill or elliptical (don’t have access to machines? Hit the track, instead).

Minutes 1 to 5: Walk or jog easy

Minute 6: Intensity level 6

Minute 7: Intensity level 9
Minute 8: Intensity level 7
Minute 9: Intensity level 9
Minute 10: Intensity level 7
continue cycle until Minute 25
5 Minute cooldown

I've been working on toning up for the past 3-4 months. I do arm curls,crunches, leg press,planks, etc. and go on the treadmill for 30 to 45 minutes almost everyday!But still no abs nor arms muscle(legs are toned now Laughing). I still have a bit of fat near my belly button that I can't get rid of. I heard that running in the only way to get rid of it. I have a hard time running due to an old sports injury. On the treadmill I do full incline with a slow jog. Do I need to do more? Is running the only way?




Hey girlie,

That's awesome! You have a great routine here. Stick with it! 3-4 months feels like a long time and you've obviously seen some results (congrats on the toned legs!), but it's not really long enough to get totally toned all over. That takes time! But you're seriously dedicated and it'll totally pay off Smile Try cutting out junk food and making better diet choices, while still making sure you're getting enough calories and healthy foods. Then just stick to your routine and be patient!
