Interval Training Advantages for Zumba and the Gym

Lack of time is the #1 reason people give for not exercising, and lack of results once they do start working out isn’t far behind.  Change up your workouts by incorporating intervals, which can be done either at the gym or in Zumba. 

Interval training involves alternating short bursts of intense activity with longer periods of recovery at a lesser intensity. 

At the gym you can be on an elliptical machine and incorporate short bursts of speed with slower “walk in the park” speeds, and Zumba is full of interval exercises. 

Personally, interval workouts always leave me feeling very energized and ready to face the day.
