The best fat-burning classes
Putting in time at the gym but not seeing the results? The best fat-burning classes below are specially designed high-intensity workout sessions that’ll fix that right up.
Tyrone Brennand, founder of concierge personal training service Be The Fittest agrees that high intensity is the answer to your fat-burning goals: ‘High intensity classes or classes with weights are great for burning fat. When training at a high intensity and/or with weights, your body will burn calories and speed up your metabolism which promotes fat loss. During a high intensity or weights workout you will obviously be burning calories, but most people are unaware that when you’ve completed your workout your body will still be burning calories hours after. This is known as EPOC (excess post-exercise oxygen consumption).’
