A HIIT workout makes your metabolism burn fat up to 48 hours after you have trained. The Excess Post Oxygen Consumption process causes this. All you have to do is to focus on this afterburn effect during your training. That means training in  a steady and constant pace is not enough, you'll need to step up the intensity of your training. High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is perfect to achieve this!
