I am sick and tired of all these sprinting/HIIT sites claiming HIIT is better for fat loss etc when that is NOT true. (little do they know pro sprinters do longer slower runs most of the time called “extensive tempo”,) Any doctor iwll tell you slower longer exercise is better for fat loss , your heart rate and blood pressure.
Could someone give me a workout plan for a beginner to lose a bit of fat. Jogging for example How long how often?
Thanks.

You want to jog for however far is comfortable for you. You shouldn’t be getting too fatigued, because you want to maintain a routine. Three or four times a week is good, more or less depending on your current level of fitness. Good luck.
haha i know how you feel the biggest problem for me is motivation i can get pumped about it for the first few days the i lose it. a good way to stay motivated is to go with friends run in a group even. anyway interval training is the best: jog for a set distance doesn’t matter what since your a beginner run about 2-3 football fields long then sprint as hard as you can for about 10sec then take a 1 min break if you want to do ab workouts and pushups during your break its good too but you a beginner the point is to keep your heart pumping the whole time and run for as long as you want then when your done record it in a journal so you know how long you run where and then after about a week of running the same distance run a little longer about an extra quarter of what you ran before
As long as you sweat/feel the burn, basically. I would recommend jogging around the local park, or places where you normally see people jog around your area. Keep a steady jog for a fairly good amount of distance. (1-3 miles)
It seems like every psuedo-trainer these days recommends that people do HIIT for maximum weight loss. It’s based on a little misunderstood study into exercise post oxygen consumption. The theory is that you’ll burn calories for up to 36 hours after your workout…Which is true to an extent, but what later studies show is that the calories you burn post exercise due to HIIT are not that big of a deal. To start a weight loss running program, you need to burn calories. The best way to do this is to alternate between harder days and easier days. I go into this a bit more on my blog, but the idea is to try and stay a bit under your anaerobic threshold on your hard days. On your easy days, you go real easy, but for longer periods of time. You’ll want a heart monitor to help you with this, or you are unlikely to train in the right zone.
