WTN- When most people think of burning fat through exercise the first form of exercise that always comes to mind is cardio like treadmill, biking, elliptical or jogging. . It is almost naturally assumed that a cardio workout will be the most efficient way to burn more fat.
Let's start first with if cardio is the most effective way to burn fat. Cardio believe it or not is not in any way shape or form directly linked to burning fat.
When you use the treadmill and do half an hour or 45 minutes or an hour or even an hour and a half of cardio, it does not at all guarantee that you are going to burn any fat. In reality cardio is linked to burning extra calories. Just because you're burning calories doesn't mean that you're burning fat. As I always say we need to create a calorie deficit to burn fat.
Even after burning 500 600 calories during a cardio session we can easily eat way more calories later in the day and completely negate the effect of cardio.
So to answer the question about whether cardio is the best form of exercise for fat loss the answer is it depends. If you add cardio to your workout and you continue keeping your diet clean and low in calories then doing that cardio could definitely speed up your fat loss results. On the other hand if you run for half an hour burn 400 calories and then get really hungry after and eat a lot of calories you will probably end up taking those 400 calories right back in if not more.
So, it is very important to stay in calorie deficit and add cardio for extra calorie burn. Don’t just think that just by hitting cardio you can loose weight or fat.
