Q and A on Fat Burning

Question: Is doing a lot of cardio somehow a good idea if you eat too many calories in one day?

Answer:
Exercise need not be a form of punishment or purging for eating too much. Build your body up, don’t beat it down by eating too much and just rely on the cardio.

Question: What is probably recommended to be the best interval training program for fat loss?

Answer:
There is no interval method that has been shown to be best for fat loss. But of course, intervals have been shown to be better than regular cardio for shedding fat fast. So therefore, using a variety of intervals for fat loss is like using a variety of repetition range for muscle growth and that is preferable. That way, you train your muscle’s metabolism in three different energy systems and put your body in the ultimate fat burning speed. This makes certain that you will maximize your metabolism while you burn more calories. During the workout and even after the workout metabolism will still work it’s best. So forget about the myth for fat loss. It is all the intensity of intervals.

Question: A person started on the beginner fat burning workout several weeks ago and will finish the four weeks this week and then planning on moving to the advanced fat burning workout for four (4) weeks. Over the past fourteen (14) months this person had dropped eighty five (85) pounds. Included in the weight loss period, he started walking nearly everyday and progressed to bodyweight exercises and doing some hill running in addition to the walking and has worked with dumbbells off and on and luckily has made some decent progress. This person still needs to continue the weight loss another twenty to thirty (20-30) pounds. All this is background. The question is: would it be possible for this person at the age of fifty (50) keep going with work outs for the long term?

Answer:
Since there is a wonderful progress and everything works fine, this person is fortunate enough in handling work outs at his early fifty’s (50’s) age. However, the fat burning workouts are designed to give you more recovery than traditional 5-day per week body part training workouts. Use the off days for recovery methods instead like walking with the dog or walking on your errands. Do one low-volume high-intensity workout and do some different stuff to improve your recovery
