    Exclamation Fat Burning Cardio?

    Currently cutting:

    I do my cardio 3x a week after weight training as i belive this is an excellent time to burn fat because you have depleted all your glycogen stores from the weights, And i dont have time for morning cardio. But my question is what type of cardio should i preform to lose fat but maintain my muscle mass?

    I was thinking about 30-45 minutes of low intensity cardio with my heart rate somewere around 130? Does this sound good for fat burning and maintaing muscle mass? Any advice?

    Thanx.

    Cool Get a heart monitor

    and 130 might be ok, it just depends on your age. Figure out what 65% of your heart rate is for your age and do that.

    Your plan seems good, I would do bike, incline walk, elliptical, and rowing machine for cardio. Good times to be had there!

    Lolz i just repped you and told you to check out this thread as you seem to know alot about cardio, Then i check back to my thread and you have alredy posted.

    My age is 18 bodyfat is alredy low at like 9% im guessing trying to get down to 6% Im sure 65% of my max heart rate is 131

    Yea i do bike on leg day as i cannot walk, and on the other two cardio days i do treadmill. But here is my problem. I do a fast walk at about 6.8 7.0 speed as im guessing this is my heart rate at 130ish? The heart rate monitor on the machine does not work, And i have tryed to buy a heart rate monitor watch but they had none in stock.

    So would a fast walk around 6.8 - 7.0 speed have me at 131 heart rate? Im 18 years of age

    Thanx for the post.

    Cool Ok...

    Bro, you can cardio ass all the way down the yellow brick road and it will not matter. Dude, you need to EAT CLEAN.

    Once you get into the single digits of BF, you not only need cardio and bulking, but you need to EAT FRIGGING CLEAN! Five to six meals a day and really watch what you are stuffing down woman pleaser.

    Really, that one twinkie will rain on your cut more than you think when you have the body fat percentage you have.

    Think about making your own meals and carrying them around with you. Also, and I almost forgot, you better be drinking exactly 2.47 metric butt-tons of water (a gallon a day but not more than 1.5 gallons). Watch your sodium intake too because bloading is a bizatch.

    I would not rely on heart rate monitors all the time. Many cardio machines are not accurate and I have found that they often underestimate your heart rate.

    It would be much more helpful just to listen to your body. Around 130-135 is when you feel slightly warm, a tad out of breath but not too much - you shouldn't really be sweating profusely.

    Personally I prefer to push myself slightly harder, either doing 30 mins at around 150-160 bpm, or HIIT training. This works for me because a) I do not necessarily want to look like a hulk, b) I want my body to be as physically fit as possible (and LISS at 130 bpm just won't cut it), therefore a minor degree of catabolism occurring isn't the end of the world in my case.

    Just try and figure out what works best for you!

    That is not true. Unless you've performed a high volume full body routine, you won't be glycogen depleted. Neverthless, after weights is a good time because glycogen availability is lower and from the increase in hormones involved in lipolysis. Doing it another time of the day would be another option since it gives you 2 metabolic upticks.

    As long as you've eaten well before and/or you are using intra-training nutrition, you don't really need to worry about muscle loss as long as the sessions are too long and too intense (45 minutes could be pushing it depending upon the weight training session parameters). Muscle amino use is typically small under most conditions as the body has an interest in keeping it and using other sources. However, lots of microeffects may give a macroeffect if done repetitively over time as things add up.

    Yes i have my diet in tack, Im eating clean and a calorie deflict at the moment, Currently actually eating 7 meals a day if i needed diet help i would of acked, Just courious about the "Fat burning cardio" to make sure i am doing it effictivly.. And my water intake for the day is extremly high, i drink up at least 2 gallons per day (Serious) and yes i know about sodium and potassium, Sodium hold excess water under the skin (water retention) givign you the bloated puffy smooth look, and potassium holds fluid in the cells giving you a full hard ripped look. Like i said before i dont need help with the diet but thanx anyway. Just want to know about the cardio and heart rate to make sure i am doing it properlly and not burnign away toomuch muscle mass.

    Oponions on this?

    Wow thanx for the knowledgeable post.What do you mean by "intra-training nutrition" Could you explain that please?

    And do you have any idea what speed or how fast/slow i should be going to achive a heart rate of around 130? I am 18 years old.

    I have been told to do a fast walk? at a speed of 6.8 - 7.0 for fat burning? What do you think about this? should i be doing it like that or different speed?

    There really isn't a way to answer that. You'll need to feel it out yourself. HR is rather variable and responds differently to exercise depending upon the individual. And your HR will probably be skewed to start with due to cardiac drift from the resistance training, body temperature elevation and hydration / electrolyte loss. Don't get too caught up in a nebulous "fat burning HR zone". Use RPE instead.

    This is just my opinion...

    I do not care about speed. I do not care about distance. I care where my heart rate is, am I in the zone?

    If I am in the zone then I am burning fat. If I am too high I am burning mucle.

    That is really all that matters.

    Again, this is what has worked for me. And this is my opinion only.

    That is really all that matters.

    Again, this is what has worked for me. And this is my opinion only.

    I know seriously..... for a 131 heart rate its around 4-5 anything above that is running, and even if your in shape ... a 7 is pretty high for fat loss.

    guy is from New Zealand. I assume you are talking about kilometers per hour instead of miles per hour.

    7.0 kph = 4.375 mph

    Yup from New Zealand, Yeah i presume i am talking about kilometers? it just says my speed is 7.0 so im guessing its 7 kilometers per hour..

    So in that case would a 4.375 mph walk be prime heart rate for fat burning?

    Anyone..?

    I have to paces, i've timed my jog at 11km/hr and my walk at 5km/hr, I mix it up (can't yet jog for the whole 30mins) and I jog for about 10mins then walk for the remaining time (20mins).

    So you can work out how much distance I travel, but i'm not sure if that can help with heartrate. I may have to check that on a treadmill.......

    Cardio done for today:

    After weight trainnig (Legs) i did 45 minutes low intensity cardio on the bike had my heart rate sitting at around 125-130.

    Going to do cardio tomorrow as well but on the treadmill, Will be doing a fast walk at about 7 kph 30-45 minutes.

    Any opinions on this? Heart rate correct duration correct?

    what would you say is the better machine for cardio?

    my brother loves the bike, but i have heard that walking (not running) on the treadmill is the best.

    any opinions?
