In this article I'm going to discuss some a controversial subject that most experts will argue on. Which is, what is the best cardio to burn fat not muscle. Hopefully some of the stuff I'm going to mention will really get you to think if you are maximizing your time as you do cardio. Now, throughout my fitness career I have always sounded like the anti-cardio pro, when in reality I'm not. I just know that traditional cardio is not the way to ultimate fat loss and keeping all your muscle. If you do your own research and interview some of the leanest people in your gym you will find out that they almost always don't do traditional cardio. And that most of the people who do traditional cardio are the ones that are the weekend warriors or people of average physiques. Now, what comes to your mind first when I mention the word, cardio? For most people they see treadmills, ellipticals and stationary bicycles and pumping away for 45min while they watch their favorite TV show or sports game. That's the cardio I am against, and this is the #1 reason why people get bored and don't stick to their workouts after a few weeks at a time. Now, that might be what you think of cardio. But in reality what does the word cardio really mean? Cardio, is just the definition for any exercise that strengthens your cardiovascular system. Now, lets not get to geek here with science. But if that's the simple definition for cardio, that means that anything that raises your heart rate can be considered cardio. So that means squats and weight lifting exercises can be considered cardio because they are going to elevate your heart rate. One of the best ways to really kick in some cardio with weights is to do complexes. A complex is a term for using one weight, doing 3 or more exercises and not putting down the weight. So for example, you can clean the weight from the ground, press it above your shoulders, then put it on your shoulders to squat it, then press it back up and then set it down to do it all over again. This is a complex and it will really get your heart rate up there and build you a solid cardiovascular system, with no boring hours of cardio on the TV machines. You can also do the same thing by doing high reps with just one exercise. For example, take barbell squats. Take a lighter weight, that would normally only do 15 and do it for 20, taking short breathing rests as you still hold the bar and finish you your set of 20. This will really get your heart coming out of your chest, after a week of doing these try and tell me you are not conditioning your heart to function better, as you burn heaves of fat and add slabs of muscle to your frame. I urge you to use these examples as your best cardio to burn fat and not muscle. In turn you will start seeing some immediate results. I mean, who doesn't want flat abs and muscle by just doing simple, brief and intense weight workouts. Instead of boring themselves to death on machines with little to nothing to show for it.
