Shorter workouts for better results

Doing intervals of intense training for as little as six minutes can do more for your fitness levels than cardio workouts that last as long as 45-60 minutes, according to research from McMaster University in Canada. Those who did four to seven 30 second bursts of "all-out" exercise, followed by four minutes of recovery time, three times a week for two weeks, significantly increased their endurace capacity over those who did traditional cardio training.
"Overall, 1.5 hours a week (including rest periods) of intense interval bursts equaled the results of 4.5 hours of regular training."

How to get flat sotmach?

How do i get a flat stomach and get rid of belly?

In order to tone the muscle and reduce your mid-section do some basic 15 minute abdominal routine which included crunches and leg raises thrice a week.
20-30 minutes of cardio 4-5 days a week will help you to improve your metabolism, burn body-fat stored in all problem areas such as hips, mid-section etc and will help you to get that overall toned look. Training with weights few times a week will also help you reach your goal at a faster pace.
As i always say, diet is 80% of your physique goal, plan on a high protein, low fat diet.

Walking speed

Q:Murali,is it better to walk long distance slowly or short distance fast?

Biglee: To get the most calorie burn from every minute, the best walks are short, fast ones. A 150-pound woman will burn about 170 calories walking very briskly for a half-hour. For the same burn, she’d have to walk for more than 45 minutes at a moderate pace or an entire hour at a slow pace. Speedy walks also win out for boosting cardiovascular fitness because your heart and lungs get stronger each time you push yourself. Any form of walking burns more calories than doing nothing, though. And studies have shown that, no matter the distance or pace, hoofing it helps reduce your risk of heart disease.
