I have been running/jogging for several years now.  I like the way I feel physically after a good run.  About a week ago I decided to start doing more "sprint" exercises like I did  back in high school in an effort to lose the fat not the hard-earned mass I’ve maneged to scrape together.  Here is what I’ve been doing…

1.  Stretch 2-3 min.

2.  1 mile warm-up Run/jog (8:00 min mile pace)

3.  HIIT sprint cycle:  run 1/2 lap (.125 mile), then walk 1/2 lap on track (or treadmill) for 2-3 miles depending on the day.

4.  Cool-down with a 1/2-1 mile walk.

All this takes from 35-53 min depending on how long I do the HIIT cycle.  Once done, I go right into my normal weight routine.  I like how I feel after the cardio, it makes me sweat more during the workout which I know is burning more calories than without the cardio.  I post up again in a couple of weeks or so to say how it’s going.  Keep pressing friends.  BOBBY
