[QUOTE="Deleted member 371625, post: 1968497"] 500m is 2 minutes for me, they key is 2 minutes sprint at whatever pace that is for you. I always use maximum resistance. Research has shown, by measuring metabolites in the breath, that this is the most effective exercise for fat burning. At rest, the body takes its energy mostly from carb stores (glycogen). When exercising briskly around 40% of energy comes from fat stores, but this stops when the exercise does. However, a 20 minute cycle of sprints (7 x 2 min) with rests (6 x 1 min) seems to trick the body as the fat burning cycle lasts for 24 to 48 hours. This works equally well on foot or on a bike. If you are really pushed for time, doing this 3 times a week may be all that you need to do. It may be that this could help with your insulin resistance / dawn phenomenon as this may be due, at least in part, to visceral fat around your liver and pancreas which can cause this. This can even occur in quite lean people. [/QUOTE]
