You can cut your spin workout by 50% and reach better results, according to the International Journal of Obesity. All it takes is sprinting rather than going at a steady speed.

The study revealed that those who did 20 minutes of eight-second sprints with 12 seconds’ low- intensity lost more belly fat after 15 weeks than those who did 40 minutes at a steady pace.

Work out for half as long and lose more fat? We’re in!
