    Well 250 cals (based off the same cardio machine) of low intensity cardio is gonna take about 20-25mins.... So one of those at the end of each weight training session...

    And at the start (said end b4) of two of those sessions (after legs) add 15 mis of HIIT....

    If your currently loosing 0.5lbs of fat a week that is ok, but I'd rather see it at 1-2 tbh... Especially if you wish to do well in your challenge with only 6 weeks left.....

    To loose 1.5 lbs per week your looking at an extra 3500 cals burned over the week (on top of what ur currently doing).... So 200 per day from diet is 1400, then 6x250cal cardio sessions is 1500 and then the other two 15 min HIIT sessions is going to be about another 500 total on top.... So a total of 3400 cals......


    Anyway that's the theory.... Good luck whatever you decide to do
    Don't be a 'Bro'..... Believe nothing....Question everything

    It's worth mentioning that the calorie counter on the machines are usually always under so they give a higher number of calories burned than what you actually did burn....

    Just something to take into consideration..... Maybe allow 10-20% margin for error....
