Fatloss Cardio Workout Burns Tons of Fat & Calories with Intense Intervals

The fatloss cardio workout on the elliptical is a great way to burn fat and calories. It can be used on any cardio machine or walking and running.

Set your setting to manual and your incline to 5 or 7 but not higher than that. Start with a 7 minute moderate paced warm-up at an easy resistance about 4 to 5 for most or 2-3 for beginners. As soon as your warm-up is done alternate between super fast intervals at a harder resistance of about 7-10 (depending on your cardio capacity) and moderate paced intervals at a lower resistance of about 5-6 (examples below).

Your fatloss cardio intervals last about 10 minutes. Your first two sets of intervals have longer recovery periods and your last two sets of intervals have less recovery time so be sure to look at the times. After your intervals cool down with 3 minutes of moderate to easy work. Finish up with the two stretches and you're done.
