Howdy,

If you want to lose fat then you should be doing some form of cardio training in conjunction with
a good nutrition plan and resistance training. 

To get the most out of your cardio training you must use progression to keep the fat loss results
coming and to make progress towards your goals.

Here are three ways to crank up your fat burning cardio results:

1.  Increase Time - A simple way to get more of a calorie burn is to simply add more time to your
cardio workouts.  This is not my preffered choice for intermediate or advanced trainees but it is a great way to start if you are new to cardio workouts.  

2.  Increase Intensity - You can get more work done in less time by cranking up the intensity of your
cardio sessions.  There are two main ways to do this.  The first is to increase the speed of your efforts
(pedal faster).  The second is to increase the resistance of your cardio.  If you have been pedaling
at level 15 on the stationary bike you can increase it to level 16 to do more work in less time. 

3.  Increase Frequency - The final way to add progression to your cardio training is to increase how often you do your workouts.  If you have been doing cardio 3 days per week you can add a fourth cardio session to your weekly plan. 

Just be sure to balance work and recovery.  As you get closer to your fat loss goals you may eventually move to daily cardio to give you that extra push.  

Just keep in mind how you can improve from workout to workout and try to beat your previous performances. 

Train with purpose,
