Fitness experts suggest that one of the most significant factors in achieving maximum fat loss is learning how to exercise at the right intensity level. It doesn’t mean that you exercise strenuously until your veins look like they are about to pop. This intensity level may be dangerous. With any type of exercise, it is the quality of effort that counts rather than the quantity. You can give 100% for a very short period of time without becoming totally exhausted and compromising the effectiveness of your workout. Doing each type of exercise at a level of intensity based on your gender will guarantee the greatest amount of fat loss and increased metabolic efficiency in the shortest amount of time. According to a study published in the ‘Journal of Sport and Health Science’, women appear to benefit from increased duration of low to moderate intensity while men seem to lose more fat by exercising at moderate to high levels of intensity.
