Loss of Fat comes from fat cells all over your body
Fat Loss is a 2 step Process
- body must release fat
- fat travels to muscle to be burned for energy
Cardio OVERKILL
Cardio is NOT the answer to Fat Loss
Do you have 300 hours to lose 6 pounds? – Craig Ballantyne
“A recent study published by the North American Association for the Study of Obesity, subjects aged 40 to 75 were instructed to do 60 minutes of aerobic exercise per day for 6 days per week for an entire year.
Given the amount of exercise, you’d expect weight losses of 20, 30 pounds, or more, right?
Well, the surprise findings showed the average fat loss for female subjects was only 4 pounds for the entire year, while men lost 6.6 pounds of fat over the year. That’s over 300 hours of aerobic exercise just to lose a measly 6 pounds of blubber. Not time well spent, in my opinion.”
You can lose weight through aerobic exercise and dieting, but without strength training you’ll also lose precious lean body mass which lowers your metabolism so your body burns even less calories than when you started a diet in the first place.
Also, strength training is the only way to reshape your body.
