Sentences with phrase «period at a lower intensity»

Not exact matches

However, when participants exercised at an intensity that was greater than 92 % of their HRmax during the high - intensity periods, the effect was even greater than at the lower intensity levels, indicating that there is a dose - response relationship even in the 85 - 95 % high - intensity zone.

At worst, they lead to a breakdown in national and regional security as people are forced to leave their homes or to engage in low - or high - level intensity conflicts over increased or extended periods of resource scarcity.

The same study recommends that fasted cardio be performed at a low absolute intensity for extended periods of time.

Steady - state cardiovascular training — such as a 45 - minute jog performed at about 55 to 65 per cent of maximum heart rate — causes the body to opt for a higher percentage of fat for fuel and its lower intensity means it can be performed over an extended period of time.

Rather than simply walking or lightly jogging at a steady speed on the treadmill for an hour or so, HIIT requires you to alternate between periods of high intensity, and low intensity exercise, so for example:

Use it: If you're keen to try fasted workouts, perform them at low absolute intensity over an extended period, the study says.

Let's define steady state cardio as any single mode exercise, performed at low intensity, for a period of greater than 20 minutes.

While a lower intensity within a 55 to 60 % training heart rate zone would use a greater percentage of fat for fuel, working at a higher intensity can nearly double the total calories burned in the same period.

This is due to the fact that aerobic exercises focus on cardiovascular endurance and are performed for longer periods of time at low - to - moderate intensities.

Intervals incorporate exercising at a high intensity for a set time followed by a low intensity «recovery» period.

Personally I like to mix it up; when running, I sometimes jog around a park for a long period of time at low intensity, and sometimes I do hill sprints as a kind of interval training.

It has become the most popular fitness advice: ditch the hour - long, low intensity cardio for a 20 minute high intensity interval training (HIIT) workout in which you alternate short periods — from 30 to 60 seconds at maximum intensity follow by the same duration or longer the recovery period.

Burning calories at low intensity for long periods of time activates fat rather than burning glucose, so it will slowly chip away at those fat reserves.

If the cramps are due to exercise, take it as an indication that you need to exercise at a lower intensity (and usually also for a shorter period of time) throughout the adaptation period.

Although there is evidence that running is the best to develop your aerobic base (because you burn more fats than in most other sports), whatever you can find that you can do at a low enough intensity for prolonged periods of time will do the trick.

I took some time off, but not a sustained period of total rest - maybe a period of 6 weeks with, say, lower intensity work with less frequency (2 to 3 times a week at most).

Otherwise her diet can remain relatively the same, if she has already shifted her diet and low intensity training for a period of time that allowed her body to use fat at higher intensities.

Interval training — exercising for short periods at a high intensity, interspersed with lower - intensity recovery periods — builds cardiovascular strength and stamina.

While steady - state (low to moderate) forms of cardio can and should be performed for extended periods of time to see maintenance and improvements in VO2max (think upwards of 45 minutes at a jog), HIIT training for cardio fitness involves working at an intensity that can only be maintained for about 20 to 25 minutes.

He added that as the climate warms, carefully reintroducing low - intensity fires at frequencies similar to those of the Medieval Warm Period may be crucial for the survival of those magnificent forests, such as those in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks.

``... carefully reintroducing low - intensity fires at frequencies similar to those of the Medieval Warm Period may be crucial for the survival of those magnificent forests, such as those in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks.»

Finds that, in the Atlantic, potential intensity, low - level vorticity, and vertical wind shear strongly covary and are also highly correlated with sea surface temperature, at least during the period in which reanalysis products are considered reliable
