FAT-BLASTING BURSTS

1 DAY A WEEK, 30 MINUTES

This routine burns kilojoules fast and trains fast-twitch muscle fibres that are responsible for jumping and sprinting. They’re some of the first muscle fibres to go if you don’t use them as you get older. Keeping these muscles in top shape helps keep your metabolism revved.

You'll need

An area where you can sprint for 28 metres – that’s approx. the length of a basketball court, 6 car lengths, or 43 steps walking normally.

You'll do

A walk or jog for 5 minutes to warm up. Then walk, jog, or run from one end of your course to the other as fast as you can. Walk slowly and catch your breath before sprinting again.
