Cardio can help you improve the function of your heart and lungs, it can help increase your endurance and stamina, and when used correctly it can also help you burn fat. However, there are many misconceptions about the role that cardio should play in the fat loss process and if you're doing cardio the wrong way you can actually be hurting your progress rather than helping ut. So today I want to go over the 8 top cardio myths that are slowing down your progress and potentially even causing you to gain fat or lose muscle, which is exactly the opposite of what you're probably doing cardio for, to begin with.
And one of the core myths is that all types of cardio are effective for fat loss. This simply is not true and there's lots of evidence to support this. For example, a meta-analysis of 14 studies with a grand total of 1,847 overweight and obese participants evaluated if cardio benefits weight loss.(1) And the conclusion was that “isolated aerobic exercise is not an effective weight loss therapy for these patients."(2) Now I know that may seem strange. After all, cardio burns calories, and since fat loss is mainly about being in a calorie deficit, then cardio should help... right? Well, it's not so simple for example one downside of cardio is that it causes 'constrained energy expenditure.' This means burning calories through cardio tends to lower your general activity levels and energy expenditure throughout the day, which often counteracts the calories burned from the cardio itself.(3) Your body burns a lot of calories throughout the day when you're not exercising. This is known as non-exercise activity thermogenesis or neat and neat uses a good chunk of calories. however, due to constrained energy expenditure, your body will look for shortcuts to save calories limiting the effectiveness of using cardio strictly for the purpose of fat loss.
Aside from that, many people believe that if they do cardio, they can eat much more food, but as I'm sure many of you know you can't outrun a bad diet.
The next myth that many beginners fall for is this idea that cardio is more effective for fat loss Than Resistance Training. It is true that incorporating both resistance training and some cardio into your workout routine can be very effective, but cardio-only based programs have many drawbacks. When comparing cardio only programs to resistance training programs, resistance training tends to be more effective especially over the long term, largely because, contrary to cardio, it doesn’t cause constrained energy expenditure. (4) And like I said according to the studies this constrained energy expenditure makes you compensate for the calories you burnt during your cardio workout by reducing your physical activity throughout the day. (5) These are little changes that you might not even notice, like not having the energy to walk your dog, or sitting and laying when you would normally be moving around, or even simply fidgeting less throughout the day. Even though this may not sound like a big deal when your body is trying to save energy it is very effective at doing so and cardio pushes your body to save energy. Meanwhile, researchers have said that “Resistance training, appears to do the opposite, so it facilitates nonexercise activity thermogenesis. Scientists also say that this is particularly true on non-exercise days, which may lead to more sustainable adaptations in response to an exercise program.”(5) On top of that, you burn about the same number of calories during a resistance training session as you do during a cardio session. This was shown in a 2015 study published in The Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research. (6) So, in that regard, resistance training is just as effective, but, unlike cardio, lifting weights also helps prevent muscle loss while on a diet, which not only helps you look better when you're done dieting but it also helps support your metabolism ultimately helping you keep the fat off.
The next cardio myth isn't necessarily going to cause weight gain, but you should still know that according to the latest evidence, fasted cardio is not actually better for fat loss than doing your cardio after you already ate. For a while, it was believed that since insulin levels are really low first thing in...

Huge point that is not often mentioned is that it trains our strongest and most important muscle ➡️ the heart ⬅️ but research is showing more then clear , that to much cardio is causing small tears in the heart and is bad for it although. Same scars that a lot of marathon runners got after those years that eventualy leads to heartproblems and so on. So the middle way is as often the right way. Better not doing extended cardio session longer then 40-50 minutes at all cause no one really need it and mix in couple 15-20 minutes sprints hiit and we are Equiped with the solid strong heart that is ready to lunch for a long healthy life. 💚💫 stay healthy and keep thriving for good my friend.

Kevin Arthur most results are genetic driven. If you're given a great body you'll take it further through exercise. Likewise, no amount of work will improve a body that doesn't have the genetics you desire. In other words, be happy with your body as what you can change is less than you think. It's more important to have your body working at its peak performance, whatever that level is.

do your strength training first. Then walk afterwards to use up the excess glucose and fat that was mobilized by cortisol during your intense effort. Wait another couple of hours before ingesting any calories. The minute you take in anything other than pure water you shut off growth hormone and go from fat burning to fat storing. Delay that insulin spike. Don't eat until you get hungry!

Lol, that 'Edit' did about 95% of the work and the lifting weights about 5%. Don't get me wrong, it is great you started lifting weights. It will help immensely to keep it off, and makes you look way better and leaner. But for actual weight loss cutting on ('empty') calories is king short term, and on the long term weight lifting.

Serious question, what if you enjoy cardio? Like prolonged - 45m-1hr+ cardio, what is the best strategy? I love the endorphin rush and mental clarity. Cardio also gives me an insane amount of energy for the rest of the day and you can do cardio everyday. Weights obviously is a struggle physically to do daily.

[@originalman3843]

You’re doing it right, don’t listen to these deceptive intellectually dishonest agents. In ancient times man walked and ran all day. The average American will never “get enough” cardio, and heart disease is the number one killer in sickmerica. That’s why I just ignore such foolish agenda driven videos trying to prove a “case” to why you should neglect your heart.

[@hassanmughal9424]

You are really super man love you brother thanks bcoz your video more hlep my lifestyle ♥️♥️😊👌🏻

[@ttigratti]

Been there, done both. If you want to see your waist size reduce, do cardio. I personally like a well toned body, not the beefy muscle bulk with a girthy waistline

[@johnrichards4097]

I am 61 and do three days weights (push - legs - pull) then do a 30 mile road bike on 4th day in about 2 hours. Day off. Then start again. I am 6 4 and 238 pounds (17 stone). It feels like a good balance and have been doing this for about a year. With good results. At my age need to do resistance but think the cardio is good for my heart. Be really interested in any feedback.

Do you have any information teachings on tennis elbow injuries from over lifting?

I haven't gone to the gym since 2018 and I miss it!! 😢. I regained the weight when I stopped but I started back eating alot healthier and doing home workouts during quarrantine. I dropped some fat too 😌

[@curtissmith3196]

Yep I would agree...get back in the gym

[@stephaniephouotrides2435]

Great vid. I have to say as a former cardio queen, I can only run on an empty stomach. I still enjoy long runs, just not as frequently as before

[@warren2g998]

I didn’t really start to loose weight until I ran 5k every other day consistently. I started lifting small weights until fatigue and got cut 👌🏾 Oh and I eat clean

[@edisondlr813]

Interesting prolly have to watch tmr again.

If you lose 2lbs every week from July 19th (when you posted this), you'll get down to 190 by December 27th. Edit: I'm saying 2 pounds because that's the reccomended fat loss for a week.

[@kpsig]

I always do my 1hr polarized or similar cardio (cycling) before resistance (pull ups and/or push ups or similar) training. I just take care to consume sweet carbs immediately after the cycling session.

[@lamzadavboy9224]

Lol.. Was so much earful to this information because there was a specific information I wanted to get and finally got it at the approach of a video end...😂 😂 Cardio is best done after lifting of weights... 👌 ❤️

[@zoom9897]

man! just do 20 min of high-intensity cardio after your weight lifting, that is it.!

[@arbernuka3679]

end of story.

[@jsnbdr]

This is a bit misleading and probably really confusing to a lot of folks. I'd say do what works for you as an individual.

[@merdassimedlayth4593]

exactly, its really confusing.

[@ScarletteInfinite]

It's so tough for me not to do cardio first then weights, and also the two in the same session because I sit in an office for 40+ hours a week. I tried to do weight training without jogging first and I strained my muscles. 😣

[@jay6817]

Cardio H.I.I.T builds fitness. Weight training, low reps full level weights, best for building muscle. Low intensity (low cortisol level) is best for Fat loss (when fasted). Is what I learnt.

[@ernestwilliams6616]

I think body type is important, for me it's easy to gain fat. After watching this vid, in my opinion and experience, I have to decided if I'm losing body fat or trying to build muscle.

[@kvalvagnes]

I started cycling in March when gyms closed to covid - gravel cycling with lots of hills - was 122kg at the start (64y.o) and could barely go 20km and walked up the hills - still 119kg but can now do a 100km ride at 6 hours with 1600m of climbing - no walking - so my shape is really so much better - and I will guess there are 1-2kg more muscles. But you right - its hard to lose weight bec you getting so damn hungry after these rides and you relax a lot - too much. So I will now starting more serious at the gym again - and with diet to lose those 20-25kg that will really make me fit. One goal is to be able to run 10km in 1 hour - for a start .... I think I need to lose 10-15kg to do that...

Can someone suggest what to do for losing a slight gut and bulk up muscle?? I’m 50 and have a pretty good metabolism. Going to quit smoking this Saturday. Thanks 💪💪👍👍

[@kenahnemann8343]

Why do I now have a headache? You guys are great but hard for a mortal to absorb and make sense of it all particularly when it is contrary to other info we’ve heard. Just tell us what to do in an executive summary please! The KISS principle!

[@petarevtimov717]

I do dare to say that it depends a lot on the individual. Personally, I was able to achieve very good results when I started doing my cardio fasted, but while doing keto. I feel that this should have been mentioned in the video, as depending on the diet, the variables change. Either way, cardio is healthy in moderate amounts, as long as it does not interfere with your workout routine and does not cause joint inflammation.

[@theMetallico666]

Damn, been doing it the other way, cardio first (walking/jogging/running mix) and then resistance training. Still I got 10kg off of me in 2 months (still overweight). Im gonna do it now the way you said it and see how much of an improvement I get.

[@likhitchand8967]

So how was the result ?

[@theMetallico666]

@@likhitchand8967 haven't been as strict as when I started but I've lost a total of 18kg. Feeling great and been practicing basics of parkour for 1 month. Never though I could actually do a backflip (with a bit of help) and to climb a big wall.
