No Matter if You Are a Couch Potato Beginner or an Advanced Exerciser, Interval Training Can Help Get You Started
Losing Stubborn Body Fat And Free You Once and For All From Agonizingly Boring 45-60+ Minute Slow Cardio Workouts!
Dear Friend,
Listen Carefully, because you are about to discover a revelation about using cardiovascular exercise to lose body fat.
Have you ever thought the following to be true:
"The more cardio I do, the more weight I should lose...right?"
If you are like many of the people I have helped, you have tried losing weight by pounding away on a cardio machine such as the
treadmill, elliptical, upright bike, stationary bike, rowing machine, stairstepper, etc. for 30, 45, or even 60+ minutes.
The problem?
Despite your best efforts, all your hard work has never yielded
any long term sustainable results.
You put in lots of time and energy along with a decent diet, but the
scale has not budged more than a few pounds.
In fact, usually you lose a few pounds in the
first few weeks, only to gain it all back and then some.
And if thats not enough, the mere thought of enduring another loooong cardio session makes you dread exercise more than
ever.
Well guess what?
If you have had enough with the long, boring, non effective cardio workouts that you have
been doing, I may have the right solution for you.
It is a new method of cardio called “interval training", and it is about to take the mainstream
exercise world by storm.
One of the biggest hindrances I've faced in working out consistently is time. Tom's combination of circuit and
interval training workouts, which are based on the latest scientific
research and training techniques, provide intensive cardio and strength training within a time frame that
fits my busy work and travel schedule.
His exercises are also structured so they can be easily adapted to increase in difficulty as you become more
fit.
With just a few simple pieces of equipment I can even do my workouts at home if I don't have time to make it
to the gym. I'm losing weight, adding muscle and at 42 I'm probably
stronger than I've ever been.
Dr. Timothy Pollock
Professor, The Pennsylvania State University
I went to Tom because I'm not naturally inclined to be consistent with workouts due to time
pressures and boredom with long aerobic training activities. The
circuit training and intervals were excellent for dealing with my "reasons to not
workout."
The workouts were incredibly efficient. 20-30
minutes got my heart roaring, my muscles working hard, and the sweat
flowing.
In sum, it's pretty hard to make excuses about not having enough time or being bored when the
circuit training/interval training you are doing changes every 30 seconds -2 minutes and your done with the entire thing in
a half hour to 45 minutes.
I used this method for over a year, and the fact that I was that consistent with it
says something about this type of workout. Within that time I lost a lot of weight despite adding lots of muscle mass. My
aerobic conditioning was tons better, my core strength increased, and I
just felt better overall.
The only downside I can think of is now I have no
excuses for not being consistent!
Dr. Jim Detert
Professor, Cornell University
So by now you might be asking...
"What is interval training?"
Interval training is a different than the normal “same speed” long
cardio routines because it involves changing speed and intensity at specific points in the workout.
It is more
fun, more effective, and takes much less time than the average cardio workout.
"Thats, great, but how exactly can interval training help me?"
Interval training is by its nature fast and effective. When
performed correctly, you can get a great interval training workout in only 25 minutes.
Read that again, only 25 minutes at the most - and
that includes the warm up and cool down! Who really has the time to go spend 60 minutes on a cardio machine 5 days a week anyway
like so many people do?
One research study found that interval training burns up
to nine times more fat cells than normal slow cardio workouts.
And thats just for starters.
Another research study found that subjects who participated in high intensity intervals resulted in significant fat loss as
compared to other subjects who worked out at a lower intensity.
You don't need drugs,"magic" supplements, crazy crash diets, or special exercise gimmicks with interval training.
You can do the cardio intervals on pretty much any cardio machine at the gym or at home, or you could do it all
outside!
Who am I And Why You Should Listen to Me
Hello, my name is Tom and I am a recovering Cardio Addict.
My name is Tom Gifford and I am a 26 year old Fitness Professional from Pennsylvania. I have been involved with the fitness
industry now for over 7 years and have spent more time in the gym than most people spend at their homes!
I have a bachelors degree in Kinesiology - Movement Science and I am a Certified Personal Trainer through the American Council on
Exercise.
I have spent months and months working in research labs for exercise physiology and biomechanics here in America and I even spent
6 months doing research and studying exercise in Sydney, Australia.
In fact when I was in college I was the only student in the country to recieve the Joe Q. Bryant Award from the American Council
on Exercise.
I've spent thousands of hours training clients and working with people in the gym to help them attain their fat loss
goals.
I currently travel all around the country attending seminars to always stay on top of every new advancement in the field of
exercise science.
Just recently I have been to Boston, Providence, Florida, Reno, Las Vegas, Sydney, New Jersey, Connecticut, and
Philadelphia. I have over 100 published articles and I am an Expert Author in EzineArticles.com.
I have seen so many people start coming to the gym, using a cardio machine, and go at a slow pace for 30, 45, or
even 60 minutes.
It almost never fails - they are there at the gym consistently for a few weeks, they look no different, and then the dissapear
until the next year.
I remember back when I was in high school I would try to lose the last few pounds of body fat so I could get a six pack before
going to the beach. I didn't know any better at the time, so I would get on an elliptical 5 days a week for 45 minutes each
time.
I worked my butt off until my shirt was soaked with sweak each time.
And guess what happened?
NOTHING.
In short:
I did not get leaner.
I actually lose muscle mass.
I dreaded going to the gym and had to force myself to stay on the elliptical machine
for the full 45-60 minutes each time.
I always hoped that the "more cardio is better" method would start to work and would help me actually lose body fat by doing
cardio 5 days per week, but that never happened.
I even tried just about all of the popular "fat burners" that I had
hoped so much would finally make the difference.
Now, lets dwell on this for a second.
I spent almost 5 hours a week for over 2 months trying to get lean by doing long, slow, boring cardio workouts! Each workout
became more and more frustrating because in my mind I was doing everything right. And yet the results in the mirror told a much
different story!
There's a lot more to this
lesson.
Sure, I put in lots of time and effort, but I went about doing it completely the wrong
way. I had no concept of how to increase my metabolism through using interval training. I didn't even know it existed! I
also went about strength training and changing my diet completely the wrong way too!
Seriously think about this for a
moment.
Does this sound at all familiar to the way you approach exercise? Do you have a "more cardio is better" mentality? Do
you avoid strength training like its the plague? Are you completely confused about how you should be eating to lose body
fat?
Now I don't know about you...but I had no
idea what was right or wrong because every magazine and article I read all told me something different! I just went with what I thought
"should" work. Despite my best efforts, I ended up wasting a lot of time, being very frustrated, and more confused than
ever.
No doubt about it, I did not have the slightest clue about what worked.
This became a problem that I was determined to solve. I began attending college and decided to major in Kinesiology, which
is a fancy word for "exercise science." I spent whole summers working in research labs, I read lots of journal articles on exercise
physiology, biomechanics, exercise psychology, and more. I learned firsthand from some of the smartest professors in the world with
regard to how the body burns fat in the most efficient way possible.
Sure enough, I slowly began to learn that I had done just about everything completely wrong. I had spent so much time
working out and trying to eat "right" only to find out that I had it all completely backwards.
But wait, there's more. Things started to "click" for me and sure enough, after years of trial and error and thousands of
hours spent doing things totally wrong, I started to actually gain muscle and lose body fat.
I started to use this new type of training I had learned called "interval training" and it worked wonders. I also learned
some awesome new methods of using strength training to sky rocket my fat loss results even more! Once I had the right formula for
interval training and strength training and I learned how to eat right, the result was amazing.
For the first time I could actually see my abs! It is a pretty great feeling and it is something that is possible for you
too!
I took all the information I had learned from years of research and personal application and condensed it all into one package
that is a detailed, step by step fat loss system for using interval training, strength training, and diet.
Introducing...
"The Great Cardio Myth"
"I've spent decades
doing long, slow cardio workouts in order to become fit. All I have to show for my time are aching knees and lower back.
Tom's training methods are very efficient. In less than 20
minutes on the bike or elliptical I can get a great workout with no stress on my joints. Interval training
combined with a circuit program isfun, fast, and effective."
Karen Burgos
State College, PA
"I been doing this type of program for two weeks now and can start to see changes in the way I
look and appear. It is so simple, but it does so
much. I can already tell I am stronger and I don't have to spend hours in the gym. The program is
easy and fun to do because it is different from the other programs out there."
Andrew Ulrich

Hi Tom!
Here’s the low down on why I like my cardio interval training:
I LOVE that it takes me less time and I definitely get a good
workout!Having a shorter workout helps me to manage my already limited time and therefore helps reduce the “guilt stress” of taking time for my workouts in my
crammed schedule.
It is definitely an intense workout and I most definitely feel great about it.
Michelle Damiano
The Great Cardio Myth is a detailed step by step guide which will teach you how to use interval training with any cardio machine
at home or in the gym. This system contains all the information you need to permanently forget about the long, painfully
boring cardio workouts once and for all
In a nutshell, here's the low down on interval training:
“Interval Training has shown in university research to drastically increase your metabolism for up to
36 hours after your workout”
Thats right, in another research study participants who used interval training instead of same
speed cardio showed an elevated metabolism for up to 36 hours after they were finished exercising.
Think about it. You could exercise for 1 hour doing a long "same speed"
cardio workout that has been shown to have virtually no effect on your metabolism. Sure you burn a few
calories, but just one big meal at some point afterwards can negate the whole workout.
Or, you can do a kick butt 25 minute interval training workout and have your metabolism increased
for the other 23 ½ hours in the day! Just think of all those extra calories that you would
not be burning otherwise.
“Your cardio workouts will be convenient and faster than ever”
When you use the right structure for your interval training cardio workouts, your workouts will be
faster and more effective than ever. You will feel like you are getting five times the workout in a fraction of the
time. All you need is 20 minutes at the least and 28 minutes at the
most.
Your workouts will be faster than your current long cardio workouts that can feel like they
drag on and on.
You will spend less total time in the gym
You will have more time to spend with your family, friends, and hobbies
Since your workouts are shorter, you will not have to force yourself to go to the gym knowing
you will spend an hour and a half doing a workout that has not gotten you the results you are looking
for.
The key for saving time exercising with interval training lies in the basic structure of the
workout. You will be alternating back and forth between higher and lower intensities in a way that will work your body hard
in the right way at the right times.
“Interval training makes your cardio workouts more engaging and fun”
Don’t you agree that sometimes normal cardio routines are just plain
boring?
You start off feeling ok for the first 10 minutes, then you cover the timer with a towel and try to
force yourself to stay on there for "another 30 minutes”. Even looking at the T.V. or reading a book doesn’t
help! You are a busy person with a lot to do, so who has time to do spend that much time in the gym?
One the other hand, when you use interval training you will be manually changing speed
and intensity in a simple and easy way to understand. Because you will changing intensities in a simple
way every 1 or 2 minutes, you will find yourself always thinking 1-2 minutes ahead as opposed to 30-40 minutes when your
normal workout is finished.
By breaking the cardio workout into smaller chunks with various intensities, the time goes by much
faster!
Using these “mini time landmarks” throughout the workout gives you something to think
about and focus on.
With interval training:
You won’t want to cover the timer with a towel and try to distract yourself
You will not need to try and force yourself to finish a loooooooooong workout
You will not have to dread the sometimes monotonous and drawn out
cardio workouts that take up a huge part of your day.
You will stay engaged, attentive, and will love the way you feel after the
workout is over!
“Your cardio workouts will be specifically geared for fat loss”
In all honesty, your current "same speed" cardio workout is actually not physiologically capable of
effectively helping you lose body fat.
Let’s say that right now you went outside and tried to run 3 miles. If you
haven’t been running regularly, it would feel really tough! But, let’s say that you ran 3 miles 5 days a week for the next
6 months.
How do you think you would feel then?
After doing the same workout over and over again, your body will adapt and it will get
easier!
This means that you essentially burn less calories the longer you do the same workout simply
because the challenge is diminished with repeated exposures.
So how does this apply to what I do in the gym?
If you go into the gym and always do a cardio workout where you go the same speed the whole time
and consistently use a “moderate” intensity level, your body is going to adapt to that type of workout.
And guess what happens when your body is adapted….
That’s right, the more you get used to it the less challenged your body will be....and
the fewer calories you will burn.
The problem with doing long slow cardio workouts is that you are
training yourself as an endurance athlete and are hoping that fat loss is a side effect.
To burn fat you need to train for fat loss as your primary goal, and that is specifically what
interval training does.
Because of the effect that interval training has on your metabolism and the way you use various
intensities, it is almost impossible for your body to adapt to the same workout!
“Special step by step section for beginners”

you will never lose the body fat that you want to. You will continue to try to force yourself to do long bouts of boring cardio
while trying to eat as little as possible. Even though you try to make good progress, the scale number never seems to permanently
