Cardio and High Intensity Intermittent Training (HIIT) can not only help you lose weight, but also remove ‘stubborn fat’, the most dangerous fat you carry on your body. Buried deep within the abdominal cavity and between your internal organs, this visceral and liver fat can trigger heart attacks, cancer and other potentially fatal diseases. According to a study, published in the ‘American Journal of Physiology’, conventional aerobic cardio training is great at targeting this type of fat. Here the shorter, hyper intense anaerobic training will raise what’s known as excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) to help your body burn more fat as fuel for many hours after your workout.
