CONDITIONING GUIDELINES Burning Fat The following guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. Remember that a proper diet and adequate rest are essential for successful results. To burn fat, you must exercise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy.
Training Zone Exercise prevent post-exercise problems. A proper cool-down should leave you feeling relaxed and comfortably tired. After warming up, increase the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is in your training zone for 20 to 30 minutes. EXERCISE FREQUENCY To maintain or improve your condition, plan three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each week, if desired.
