Burn Belly Fat Like A Pro
There’ s no better time than spring to lace up your running shoes and start hitting the pavement. Regardless of your current fitness level, using a run/walk method, or what I call “Gonzo training,” can lose belly fat like a pro.
1. The Happy Face Pace – At this level, you can carry a conversation, laugh and have an enjoyable chat.
2. The Determined Face Pace – At this level, it’s harder to carry on a conversation.
3. The Gonzo Face Pace – At this level you give it all and start counting down the seconds until you can pull back and continue the Happy Face Pace once again.
Here’s an example of how you can put it all together for an effective Gonzo workout: Warm up for 5 minutes to get your body loose and moving. Then, 30 seconds Happy Face Pace, 30 seconds Determined Face Pace and 60-90 seconds Gonzo Face Pace. Repeat at least 5 times
Going Gonzo on a regular basis will burn that hard-to-beat belly fat. Switching to those lower-intensity levels will allow you to avoid fatigue and effectively exercise for a longer duration of time. So lace up those shoes and start Going Gonzo!
Here’s to your health!

LOVE this and I take my Kathy Smith walkfit tapes (that I have been using for 21 years) and during the faster intervals I run and then slow down to fast pacewalk. Makes a HUGE difference.
Well, this is really a good way to lose your belly fat. Keep yourself happy to maintain you healthy. This will keep you healthy and fit. Love is the only way to keep you happy.
Mixing running and walking burns more calories by keeping your body guessing and mixing up the intense levels. What I like to do on my cardio days is jog around our neighborhood and do a few random short sprints. I’ll pick a target 50 to 75 meters out and race to it. Then I’ll go back to my regular jogging pace and find another target. Makes running more fun and challenging.
Walking is a great start and the Gonzo training can really get anyone moving.
Of course if you don’t eat well that doesn’t help. Your best bet is to do a combination of diet and exercise so you lose as much fat as you reasonable can. Personally I’ve found that out of all my friends, the ones that stick with it and lose the weight have found programs that were really easy to fit into their lifestyle.
