Fatthumping

=Some vague, pseudo-scientific reasoning=
Studies into what fuels exercise at different intensities have shown that the burning of peripheral fat is fairly constant in terms of Calories/minute from 25% to 65% [[VO2max]], which is between walking pace and a slow run for me. However, above 65%, the rate of peripheral fat burning drops significantly. In addition, there is some evidence that this reduction in peripheral fat burning is due to a lack of mobilization within the fat tissues rather than a change in the way the muscles burn fuel. Therefore it is a theoretical possibility that Fatthumping will mobilize the fat within the fat tissue during exercise and increase the rate of fat burning.
