is cardio best to burn fat

When asked what specific form of exercise is BEST for burning fat, the most common answer, 9 out of 10 people actually, is unquestionably…THE TREADMILL (but they’re wrong).

Some like to “run it out” for 30 or 40 minutes while others think the slow, steady burn that you get from a fast walk is the key to faster fat loss. But doesn’t steady state cardio burn the highest percentage of fat?cardio confusion best way to burn fatYep. But there’s wayyy more to that story, and I can promise you, if you stop there…you’re costing yourself big time when it comes to the results you should be seeing!  Numbers don’t ALWAYS tell the truth!

I call steady state treadmill cardio THE ROAD TO NOWHERE. Look, most guys want to not just get lean and ripped but they want to BUILD MUSCLE as well. Getting this “cardio confusion” wrong will definitely hurt your chances of the first goal and absolutely destroy your chances of the second.
 
If after watching this video you see why “A-X Burst Training” is the answer that allows you to BURN AND BUILD BETTER, then it’s time to get started on your 90 day Athlean Body ReconstruXion Today!
 
Hoping that this week’s video will help you to change your outlook on traditional cardio.  Those stubborn love handles will thank you for it…I promise!
 
STAY STRONG…
