What's better regarding cardio when it comes to fat burning? Starting off hard, then easing down until it's just a 'warm-down' at the end, or to change up the intervals so it's easy and hard throughout?

 

Starting out easy allows your body to warm up. Then if you want to throw in some intervals, you can do so. i.e. 30 seconds hard, 2 minutes easy. (These are just examples.) If I have a hard workout, I make sure to chill at the end. You could walk or slow jog for 5-10 minutes.

 

Hope that helps!
