Not exactly sure about the comments about:

"Exercising at a heart rate of 60-70% of maximum for 30-mins or more will encourage your body to burn fat reserves for fuel. Running harder than this will better develop the cv system but also encourage burning of carbs rather than stored fat"

My understanding from what I have read is that fuel is fuel.
In the first 40-mins of exercise you use 70% carbs/30% fat, and once your carb resources are depleted you will rely on fat stores to fuel you through the rest of the workout.

HIIT (high intensity interval training) will boost your bodys metabolic rate for longer, than if you do a long run. ie
80-min slow paced run = 30-mins HIIT (with a mixture of exercises)

When I say HIIT will spike your metabolic rate for longer....I mean....
Thats why long distance runners can look like they have hardly broken a sweat 15-mins after completing a run, and the HIIT-trainers will still be "rosy-faced" and "cant stop sweating".

I suppose these are the two different schools of thought.
Good article, got people talking anyways. :)
