Hi Magic,
thanks for replying. I'm confused at what you said regarding
cardio versus
fat burning. Cardiovascular exercise does burn
fat if one has
fat to burn. So why is burning
fat and
cardio different? We do
cardio when we do anything that elevates the heart to the percentage you suggested or faster, such as jogging, swimming, fast-walking, biking etc.... and there is no choice but to burn
fat, or in the very least we burn
calories which if we burn enough, we will achieve a caloric deficit below our maintenance level and we lose
fat. So either way,
cardio is the way to go to burn/lose
fat.
Another way is by lifting
weights which increases metabolism in order to burn more
calories throughout the day. The third and last way is of course eating healthy, but making sure we are not eating more
calories then we burn.
So to sum it up, any form of exercise that speeds the heart will burn
fat or burn
calories which in the long run we will lose
fat do to the caloric deficit, along with lifting
weights and eating right.
Any more comments welcome.
