I see many people get caught up in how many calories they burn in a cardio session. It seems an hour’s effort hardly burns away a donut.
Be discouraged, but don’t fret. I have the answer!
Muscle is always hungry, so adding lean muscle mass to your frame means calorie-munching muscle all day long.
Start with a full body lifting routine of 9-12 exercises, 2-3 times per week. Stay on this routine for about 4 weeks and then switch to a split lifting routine (means alternating muscle groups each workout session) for 4-6 weeks.
Your metabolism will immediately rise and noticeable fat weight loss will occur within 2-3 weeks as long as you don’t significantly increase your caloric intake.
Cardio is an important staple to a fitness regimen, but unless you’re doing a high volume of cardiovascular training, the post-workout metabolic effect is much less than that of weight training.
Give it a try – if you have any questions, let me know!
I’m happy to help.
