Best short fat burning workouts for busy people! If you can't find time to exercise, and have stubborn fat or a lot of fat to lose, there are fat burning exercises that can be squeezed into your busy schedule, and though these exercise workouts are short, they will burn fat and create the fat loss you're desperate for. Forget what you think you know about fat loss and exercise, particularly abdominal fat loss.

The following exercise principles have been proven by science and will knock off body fat, including fat in your gut. The first concept is BURST TRAINING. Burst training exercise is designed to burn fat in as very little time as possible. But you must be willing to accept the basic tenet of burst training: high intensity exercise. Without high intensity, these one-minute exercise routines will not burn fat.

Burst training consists of four, one-minute exercise routines, sprinkled throughout the day. Four is the minimum for beginners, though more seasoned exercise enthusiasts will also get results with just four a day. Ideally, you want to move up to eight, one-minute exercise sessions in a given day. Can you spare eight minutes of exercise in your busy day?

Burst training need NOT be done every day. Do this exercise just three times a week. But alas, the one-minute exercise routines must be very demanding; so demanding that a person can do these exercise routines for only...one minute (give or take a few seconds). The following exercise routines can be done to exhaustion in just 60 seconds:

Squat jumps. If you can last longer than one minute, squat deeper on the next set. Or jump higher. Tweak it so that after one minute, you're toast.

Jump roping rapidly and/or with a high jump. Beginners may not need to go so rapidly to get spent in only 60 seconds.

Mountain climbers. At end of this article is the URL for a demonstration.

Pushups.

Running down the street as fast as possible.

Running up and down your staircase as fast as possible.

Karate kicking.

Heavy-bag punching.
