Q) Scott, how often should we exercise each week if my family wants to burn body fat as fast as possible? Does going every day make sense? ~ Connie and Rob
A) Strive for 5! Three weight training sessions geared for fat loss and two Rapid Fat Burning Interval sessions each week will help you earn an elevated rate of fat burning throughout the entire 7-day week. Each well executed session has a huge impact on metabolism and fat burning hormones for the following 48-hours if the right recovery protocols are in place. The length of these sessions will need to vary based on a few factors, but across the board, five intense exercise sessions are ideal for fat burning without over training.

Consistency is a key to Success
Stringing together four weeks in a row of the Strive for 5 System is a big achievement and will result in huge body fat loss improvements with the right nutrition approach in place. I highly suggest the 21-Day Fat Cell Cleanse Nutrition System which works synergistically to maximize rates of body fat loss using intense exercise sessions that are relatively short in nature.
Weight Training for Body Fat Loss
Short rest periods and extended set durations lasting 40 to 60 seconds with challenging weight loads are essential for maximizing rates of body fat loss. I highly recommend the Cluster 6 Pause system that Dr. Serrano created which provides fresh stimuli for the muscles and the nervous system. Short rest periods combined with high levels of effort creates excellent fat burning conditions. The higher the level of achievement week to week, the greater the release of fat burning hormones.
Rapid Fat Burning Intervals
A high level of intensity on a stationary bike for 10 seconds followed by a jog pace for 30 seconds is highly effective for fat burning if you can repeat that sequence 10 times! It is better to have only ten intervals with furious effort in comparison to going through the motions for more intervals. The key is intensity and high output. However this can be a gradual process pending the conditioning level of each individual person.
Feed The System
Focus on consuming whole foods raised sustainably like grass-fed beef , pastured poultry, and wild-caught seafood along with the right dietary fats and green vegetables to stay satisfied. Exercising frequently with a high level of intensity can increase hunger as metabolism surges. A common mistake for those wanting to lose body fat is not eating enough which actually slows metabolism over time. The 21 Day Fat Cell Cleanse Nutrition System includes many nutrition strategies to maximize fat burning while promoting high daily energy without hunger or cravings.
