alright, i see what you're saying. i thought you meant that if i were to lift instead of say run i'd burn more fat. i understand it's possible in the long run but it's better if they both go hand in hand. (with diet)

yes people say cardio in the am but if you can't don't sweat it. resistance training is working with weights.Originally posted by Face
I always thought as long as you were carb-depleted (like after an overnight fast) you would burn fat with a cardio session.... hence why everyone runs first thing in the morning....
Can you explain to me a little more about resistance training?

Sort of. This is where it gets hard. How carb depleated are you actually? How full is your glycogen storage. Now you got to make sure your muscle don't become catabolic. Your muscle are made of protiens which is much easier for your body to break down than fat and use as energy.Originally posted by Face

Resistance Training is just some sort of weight exercise. Anaroebic exercise.

Exactly. I don't rember the numbers because it's been a while since I read up on it. But it something like it takes 8 hours of straight cardio to burn one lb. of fat. Cory may have it a little fresher in his mind. He been working on his ACE cert. Try pm'ing him if you want.
