      1. Use one leg hard when riding a bicycle

      When you're working out on a scooter, intermittently pushing one leg harder can increase the intensity of the exercise. At the beginning, you can pedal with both legs at medium intensity for 4 minutes, then focus on the left leg and pedal with high intensity. After 30 seconds, switch to your right leg as the main power leg and push for another 30 seconds. Then, pedal with both legs at a medium speed for 4 minutes as a way to adjust and recover. In this way, push hard with one leg for 1 minute every 4 minutes, a total of exercise 30 minutes. This single-legged pedaling exercise can help you burn 20% more calories.

      Calories burned by exercising on a scooter for 30 minutes: 950 joules

      Calorie consumption of 30 minutes of exercise after interspersed single-leg exertion intervals: 1138 joules

      2. Relaxing aerobic exercise

      If you master the rhythm of strength and weakness during half-hour aerobic exercise, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort, that is, add gentle recovery time between high-intensity exercise. It is also half an hour of aerobic exercise. This kind of exercise with a strong and weak rhythm consumes twice as many calories as an exercise with a smooth rhythm. Points out: “If you do high-intensity exercise continuously, you will be exhausted quickly, but intermittent rest and recovery can help you maintain this high-intensity level. ”

      Calories burned while exercising steadily on the elliptical machine for 30 minutes: 1222 joules

      Calorie consumption for 30 minutes of exercise with strong and weak rhythms: 2444 joules

      3. Split exercise time

      It is recommended that bodybuilders split their usual exercise into two sections. For example, if you used to run 5 kilometers every day, you can split it into 2.5 kilometers in the morning and 2.5 kilometers in the evening. He said: "When your workout time is shortened, you can try to increase the intensity so that you can burn more calories over the same distance. ”

      Running once a day (30 minutes at 40 seconds/100 meters): 1356 joules

      Running 2 times a day (15 minutes at 30 seconds/100 meters): 1528 joules
