What You'll Need
A treadmill

You can burn up to five times more fat by alternating your pace during your workout, compared with just chugging along at the same speed. This high-energy routine from New York–based trainer Brett Hoebel really cranks it by increasing the treadmill's incline as you do 30- and 60-second fast and slow intervals, working your legs and butt along with your heart and lungs.
