3 Fat-Burning HIIT Workouts You Can Do Anywhere


The following is an excerpt from HIIT for Women by Sean Bartram.

These introductory routines are designed to get you started with high-intensity interval training by introducing base exercises and common routine formats in a way that is varied and challenging without being overwhelming. Get things rolling with lower impact exercises, shorter routines and longer rest periods. Remember the golden rule during each of these routines: form first and speed second.

Easy Does HIIT
Total Time: 9:00

These four classic and simple HIIT exercises provide a total body workout at a 2:1 work-to-rest ratio, which means you’ll be working for twice as long as you rest. Push hard, have fun and let’s HIIT IT!

Repeat the set three times. Rest for one minute after each set.

Trainer Tip:
For both squats and pushups, depth is far more important than speed. If you need to, perform the pushups from your knees.

Fitness Motivation Video that all Women should Watch


It's the name of a book and a weight-loss strategy promoted by hypnotherapist John Richardson, who believes that what you say to yourself subconsciously and aloud can help you prevent weight loss-sabotaging behaviors. For example, on a midnight fridge raid you might say to yourself, "What am I doing here? Is this really what I want?" It's a technique that Brian Wansink, PhD, director of the Cornell Food and Brand Lab in Ithaca, New York, and author of Slim By Design: Mindless Eating Solutions to Everyday Life, has found to be strongly associated with losing weight.

The problem is, many of us aren't willing to do it because it's, well, strange. But it's very much worth a try. "If you're faced with a snack and you're not hungry, say to yourself out loud: 'I'm really full, but I'm going to eat this anyway,' " he advises. "We've found that when people make that statement aloud, two-thirds of the time they don't eat the food. That's all you have to do, but you do have to say it aloud."
