Intro
Looking at Lee Grantham’s Fastest Way To Burn Fat, here’s a breakdown so you can run this workout right away. It’s worth watching the full video for additional context and fine-tuning.
Key Points
- A solid warm-up lasting 12–15 minutes prepares your glutes, hamstrings, quads, and joints for faster running while reducing injury risk.
- The main workout alternates 1 minute at race-pace intensity (roughly your 5K/10K effort) with 60 seconds of easy walking. Keep your effort steady across all intervals.
- Begin with 10 repeats, then progress by extending the hard intervals to 2, 3, 5, or 10 minutes as your fitness improves—always recover for 60 seconds between.
- Practice dynamic leg swings, strides, and midfoot landing to build power and movement efficiency.
- Pace yourself by effort rather than clock time. Breathe deeply during recovery walks to bring your heart rate down faster.
Workout Example
- Warm-up (12–15 min)
- Walk for 400–500 meters over 4–5 minutes.
- Add an easy jog for 500–600 meters (about 1 minute) to reach roughly 1 km total.
- Do dynamic leg swings and hip-flexor stretches.
- Run 4–5 short strides, building speed with each one.
- Interval set (beginner)
- Run 10 intervals of 1 minute each at what feels like your 5K–10K race pace.
- Walk easy (or jog very slowly) for 60 seconds between repeats.
- You should feel warm by the end of your warm-up, and hold the same intensity from first to last rep.
- Progression
- When you’re ready, increase the number of reps or lengthen the hard intervals to 2, 3, or more minutes—maintain the 60-second recovery each time.
