A site with videos outlining the tabata protocol...which is a quick interval style workout which burns body fat.

I have been guilty in the past of not giving steady state aerobics any respect. I am a big believer in high intensity interval training because it is extremely effective at burning body fat. I LOVE high intensity interval training. It is quick and gets results, but obviously steady state aerobics have great advantages as well. In this article I will talk about combining the two to maximize fat loss.

Have you ever heard of the "Tabata Protocol"? It isn't a brand new way of performing cardio, but it is rarely discussed in fitness circles anymore. It is really too bad, because I think many people could benefit tremendously by incorporating it into their workout routines.

I was working out today, thinking about how I spend too much time in my gym! I see the same people every day, the same trainers, the same girls, etc. I like my gym, because it is in my comfort zone. I've trained there for over a year and I know where everything is. I get a great workout, but somehow I feel like I'm missing out on something.

I just wanted to say "thanks"! I have been working out in the same gym as you for the past 19 years and I've rarely spoken to you. I know you must think I'm a "pretty boy" for doing cardio and NOT doing hardcore things like yelling and dropping weights. Oh well…maybe you will like me better after this "thank you" letter.

Typically all the guys (and some women) I see in the free-weight room are trying to gain as much muscle as possible. Worse than that, they will take the muscle gain on any part of their body. The problem with gaining muscle just for the sake of gaining muscle quickly creates an unbalanced body.
