When it comes to burning fat, interval training is a great way to rev up your metabolism and burn more calories all day long. Because of the intensity of this kind of workout, you really don't need (or want) to spend a lot of time doing it. Short bursts of activity are best for melting off that stubborn fat, and most high-intensity interval training workouts only take 20 minutes or less.
This quick workout only takes 16 minutes, and incorporates both cardio and strength-building elements, meaning you'll get an intense full-body workout in under 20 minutes.
This workout includes a short warm-up and cool-down, and consists of 4 sets of 6 different exercises. Each exercise is done for 20 seconds, with 10 seconds of rest between each set.
Grab some water and a towel (this one is intense!) and let's get ready to burn some fat!

6 Simple Exercises to Help You Lose Weight Faster
It is a well-known fact that we can lose weight faster when we work out regularly, and there are some workouts that can make the process even faster. While some people chase “super fast” weight loss pipe dreams with fad diets, others choose the smart and effective path of a healthy diet and regular exercise to lose the weight and keep it off.
While there are days in which you feel excited about heading to the gym and engaging in challenging workouts with your friends, other times may not want to do so, and you’d rather be by yourself and work out in your own living room.
The good news is that you can lose weight fast by working out at home. So, whenever you don’t feel like going to the gym, the following home workouts will help you build your muscles and lose weight in the privacy of your own home.
Six 3-Minute Fat Burning Exercises
The following exercises are very effective in building your muscles and helping you lose weight, especially if you have a busy schedule. If you practice these exercises daily, you will lose weight and get your body in shape fast.
You will need a comfortable mat, a towel, and a skipping rope. Don’t forget to hydrate yourself before and after your workout. Let’s get started.
Upside-Down Pipe Exercise (Downward Dog) – 30 Seconds
This exercise lasts for 30 seconds. It is extremely effective in shaping your abs.
1. Place your hands on the mat and balance on your hands and your toes in plank position.
2. Stretch your legs next to your body. Next, pull the legs away from your hands, stretching them backward, and pressing your behind towards the ceiling into an upside-down "V" shape.
3. Hold this exercise for 30 seconds. It will strengthen your abs, arms, and back.
Leg-Lift Exercise – 30 seconds
This exercise focuses mainly on shaping your legs, tights, and abs.
1. Lie down on your back on the mat and squeeze your legs together.
2. Next, lift left your legs to 90 degrees, keeping them squeezed tightly together, until your body forms an "L" shape.
3. As you bring your legs back to the initial position, stretch them away from you, keeping your abs down and tight.
4. Repeat this exercise for 30 seconds.
Squats Exercise – 30 seconds
Squats are always included in cardio exercises because they aim not only at toning your thighs but also at shaping your entire figure.
1. For this exercise, keep your legs apart and bend your knees deeply as you squat back into your heels. Be sure to keep your knees from going forward over your toes to prevent knee injury.
2. For an added challenge, try jumping as you go back to the initial standing position.
This exercise will also improve your cardiovascular health, and tone your legs.
Mat Abs Exercise – 30 seconds
This exercise is great for shaping your abs and thighs.
1. For this mat exercise, you need to lie down on your stomach on the mat.
2. Next, raise your hands, chest, and legs off the mat while trying to maintain your balance on your torso and keep from wobbling.
3. Repeat the exercise for 30 seconds.
Bicycle Knee Exercise – 30 seconds
The greatest thing about this exercise is that it shapes your entire body, while focusing especially on reducing your arm and abdominal fat.
1. Lie down on the ground and raise yourself onto your hands and knees. This is the initial starting position.
2. Lift your left knee and pull it up so it touches your left elbow.
3. Do the same with the right knee and right elbow. Alternate for 30 seconds.
Rope-Skipping Exercise – 30 seconds
This exercise is accessible to everybody and is more effective than you might think while at the same time being fun.
Skipping exercises are the perfect solution for shaping your legs, working your abs, improving balance and coordination, and getting a highly effective cardio fat burning workout.
Skip in place as long as your fitness level will allow. Start slow so you can learn to coordinate your skips with the jump rope. Keep your body straight and abs tight during the exercise.
As you get more fit keep adding more time to each jump rope session and increase your speed.
Do one set of each of these for a quick 3-minute energy boost, or 3 sets for a quick but effective workout in less than 10 minutes!

Tabata Training for Fat Burning
Tired of being overweight? Sick of not being able to wear the clothes you want to wear? Ready to change? One good way to burn fat and build lean muscle is by using the 4 minute Tabata Workout.
The Tabata Game Plan:
You’re going to do twenty seconds—yes, I said twenty seconds—of really, really, really intense aerobic exercise. Then you’re going to stop and do nothing at all for all of ten seconds.
Then you’re going to do your exercising again, and keep it ramped up to the ultimate level—for all of twenty seconds. Then you get ten seconds to get back to feeling like a human again. And then you’ll be doing that maximum intensity stuff again, for twenty more seconds, and when the timer gets off, you catch your breath—for exactly ten.
Keep on with this rhythm, until you’ve done 8 rounds of twenty-second bursts of fat torching radically intense exercise.
Creating The Anaerobic State
In the past, fitness experts have advocated the “fat burning zone,” which, basically equates to 1 hour of steady cardio, such as on a treadmill or exercise bike.
This slow methodical cardio process had become old news since science has shown that intense work intervals followed by short rest periods is what facilitates what is known as the anaerobic state, and this exact state is what allows for the most fat burning.
Anaerobic literally means “without oxygen,” where you will be gasping for breath, and often feel like you are unable to catch your breath. This is the ideal zone for fat burning, increasing endurance and stamina and strength training for the muscles. In the Anaerobic state the body begins to use fat for energy instead of carbs, which are typically what is used in long, steady-state endurance exercise.
HIIT is one of the most well-known and widely used protocols to create this anaerobic state, though, Kettlebell training does it as well. But, Tabata really takes it up a few notches and includes some of the most gut wrenching, breath catching moves with the shortest workout time that results in maximum fat loss, extreme metabolism boost and consequent calorie burning for hours after the workout is over.
EPOC And Metabolism
The practice of alternating short recovery periods with maximum effort allows the body to push itself beyond its perceived threshold, and that initiates a chemical response and neuro-endocrine reaction.
Elevating the metabolic rate is the key to burning body fat! Contrary to what so many people focus on, the goal is not so much the calories or fat burned during the workout, but, what is burned continuously after the workout.
And the only way to use fat as energy during the workout is with intense intervals that raise the resting metabolic rate. During very intense bursts the heart rate soars and as you struggle and gasp for air you will naturally react by taking in more oxygen in the rest periods and this extra oxygen is what will raise the metabolic rate. This process is known as excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC).
Tabata is the fastest and shortest workout option to create EPOC, and the anaerobic state, which, is so effective at torching body fat.
Choosing The Right Moves For Tabata
What exercise you choose to do will depend on your personal physical state and what you’re comfortable with. The type of exercise you do for a Tabata session has to be one that you are very familiar with, and very good at.
Still, if you’re not good at any exercise, don’t worry. You can teach yourself anything. What you’ll have to do is to do some mock-up Tabata sessions at a more normal level, just to get yourself used to the way it works.
Form is very important in body weight exercises, and if you start by trying to go fast, or aim for too much intensity outside of your fitness level, you’ll lose out in form and the exercise will be of little value - and you may even injure yourself.
Burpees
One good exercise to use with the Tabata protocol is burpees—they’ll give you a full-body workout with no extra equipment.
1. You start out standing straight and tall, hands stretched over your head.
2. Then get down into a squat, hands down on the floor, and from there go into a plank.
3. Go down all the way, like the lower side of a push up; push yourself up, then jump back up to the squatting position and back up to standing.
4. Then one quick jump up, and you’re ready to begin again.
Here's what it looks like:
If you haven’t done burpees before, or it’s been a long time since you’ve done them, start by just doing four or five of them slowly, keeping good form. Tomorrow do ten, and the day after that, fifteen.
When you feel comfortable with the rhythm of this exercise and can do it pretty fluently you’re ready to incorporate it in an all-fire intense Tabata workout.
There are many other moves that can be done, some of which are simpler, and some are more completed. Even jumping jacks and sit ups can work in Tabata when they are executed in fast and continuous reps for the full 20 seconds.
Timing
You’ll need a stopwatch or some way of measuring seconds. A free Tabata app on your smartphone—there are several to choose from—is an easy way of getting it done.
When the counter starts, start doing burpees as if your life depended upon it, as if there was an atomic bomb about to go off and blow you and your loved ones to bits if you did any less than the maximum number.
When twenty seconds are up, stop. Wait ten seconds, and then go at your fastest, most intense pace again for twenty more seconds.
When you’ve done eight twenty-second sessions you’ll have completed your fat-torching Tabata workout routine - and you'll continue burning fat all day!

[Video] Crazy Intense 10-Minute Fat Blasting Workout
We let you off the hook yesterday, since we figured you'd be busy cooking and enjoying time with family and friends, but we're not letting you off the hook when it comes to staying fit through the holidays! You probably ingested at least a few extra calories yesterday, so today we're back with a super intense fat burning workout that WILL make you sweat and burn off some of those rolls and pie you ate!
This home fat burning workout is perfect for those who have always wondered how to burn fat fast but were stuck in the mindset of thinking that traditional steady state cardio was the answer. In fact, because of the involvement of multiple muscle groups that this workout provides over plain treadmill walking or running, you can expect to burn more calories per minute than you would otherwise. In fact, if you do this one a few times over the next few weeks, you'll have a great head start on keeping off the holiday pounds! Give it your best for these 10 minutes and you’ll see that your energy expenditure and caloric burn can be significant.
This high intensity home fat burning workout can be performed with absolutely no equipment and in very little space, so even if you're staying with family this holiday, you can still squeeze in a workout - no excuses!
Now, let's kick some fat butt! :-)
Please Note: This is a high-intensity workout! You should consult with your doctor or personal trainer before attempting this workout, especially if you are at a low fitness level. Always listen to your body, and pay attention to proper form when performing each exercise to avoid injury.
