How to Burn The Most Fat During A Workout

Pick up the pace during yout treadmill workout to burn more fat.

If you want to burn more fat during you workout, turn to interval training. In interval training, you alternate a steady pace with bursts of fast movement. By the end, you burn more calories that if you had kept the steady pace for the duration of your workout. As your fitness improves, add longer fast bursts or more intervals to challenge yourself. The effects of interval training won't stop after you're done working out; your heart rate will stay high for a long time after the workout, and you will continue burning calories.
