[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]you need to be honest with yoruself, it is not chub, it is not baby weight, it is fat.  The only way to get rid of it is burning it by increasing your heart rate.  You need your heart rate to be at a min of 80% of it's max for a min of 45 min.  You need to get it up to that rate and keep it there non stop

good luck[/quote]

Most non professional athletes cannot sustain an 80% or above HR for that length of time.

I'm an endurance runner and I have done Ironmans.  In order for an endurance athlete to sustain HOURS and HOURS of intense cardio activity, we must keep our HR DOWN BELOW 80%. At 80% and above your are buring stored glucose that burns fast and leaves you exhausted, this is where sprinters preform best. There is a window that is between 65-80% of your max HR that uses and burns fat as energy.  Even marathon runners with 6% body keep in this zone in order to continue to burn fat and NOT glucose.

If the OP wants to become a sprinter then she should run at 80% and above, but if she wants an efficient use of her time and to literally melt the fat away, she needs to stay below 80% for sure.[/quote]
