Why Cardio Isn't King When It Comes to Fat Loss

Okay, first off, EVERYONE should be doing some form of cardio especially if you fancy living a bit longer and not struggling up there stairs when you turn 60.

But when it comes to fat loss it’s often where beginners go.

You start running or doing spin 5 times a week and you see incredible initial weight loss however there in the sentence is an issue.

WEIGHT LOSS. Not fat loss.

The weight you are losing can be made up of up to 30-40% muscle loss as well as fat loss.

The science shows having muscle mass is a key indicator to living a better life when we’re older so ensuring we maintain, or limit the reduction of, muscle during any fat loss period is hugely important..

So how do we do this?

Well even lifting weights once or twice whilst doing your running or aerobic classes will have the desired affect.

Not only will you lose fat but you may also build some muscle which will give you a great looking physique and you’ll still be carrying all your shopping bags in one go from the car when you’re 80!
