Want to burn more calories?



Use an incline next time you run or walk. You can burn up to 50% more calories on an incline compared to level ground. This can be done by increasing the incline on your favorite piece of cardio equipment or simply walking or running up hills or any elevated surface.




Pro's



  • Larger muscles must work that much harder and therefore you burn more calories

  • You will get more bang for your buck in less time at the gym

  • Firm up your butt and back of your thighs

** Remember to take it slow especially if you have never really worked out on an incline before. The intensity will be higher and you will get winded quicker. Start slow and then gradually increase the % incline each workout.
