Kerr1992		Another Cardio Thread...	19-01-2015 @ 21:07
I can still see my feet AND nob. Member 3153, 37 posts SQ 150, BP 95, DL 170 415.0 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq	Hi folks, As the title suggests I'm looking to see what use guys do to burn fat? I've heard good things about using a prowler or farmers walk etc. I've had a browse through some of the other cardio threads but couldn't find much useful info. I'm currently at 104kg last time I weighed myself and im at least 25% Bodyfat lol. It's been a year or so since I was training and uni resulted in a lot of weight being put on lol. I'd like to get under 93kg without losing muscle. Cheers!

Hill sprints are fun! Member 731, 3253 posts SQ 200, BP 127.5, DL 232.5 560.0 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq	Prowler work is horrendous. Sprints and hill sprints are fun as my tagline suggests.

what is everyone's fran time? Member 3986, 10449 posts SQ 340, BP 200, DL 400 940.0 kgs @ 129kgs Eq	for fat burning id go longer distance, walking/hiking, rowing would be my preferred options. prowler/ hill sprints are brilliant for conditioning but probably wont be enough calories burned unless your doing loads

Member 3153, 37 posts SQ 150, BP 95, DL 170 415.0 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq	See i'm fortunate to work in a sports centre where I can talk to many gym instructors about training but the downside to this is that you get many conflicting arguments :-( lol Some recommend sprints etc but some also recommend some low intensity running with both saying the other is crap for maintaining muscle lol. I'll maybe have a bash at some sprints. How would use do sprint training? length and sets etc.

Hamstrings feel activated. Member 1107, 6964 posts SQ 220, BP 152.5, DL 252.5 625.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq	If you have no immediate rush to lose the weight do it entirely with a small daily calorie deficit and correct macro management. f**k cardio. Lifting weights and a small calorie deficit is the best way to preserve muscle on a cut. It just takes a little longer. Cardio makes you fat.

I've started following the paleo hybrid diet and even though it seems unpopular amongst lifters it's doing wonders for my sugar levels as I'm type 1 diabetic. Part of me wonders if I'm under eating on this one though.

I can still see my feet AND nob. Member 3153, 37 posts SQ 150, BP 95, DL 170 415.0 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq	I just used a method i found online to calculate my maintenance calorie intake. It worked out as 3473 calories a day. That can'y be right! must be something else ive missed!

Member 5141, 4208 posts SQ 300, BP 180, DL 350 830.0 kgs @ 130kgs UnEq	It seems a bit high, though if you have a physical job it may well not be far off. For me maintenance is around 4000kcals a day. As for cardio, id say rowing or swimming are the best options. But if the goal is just weight loss and theres no rush id stick to walking and slightly reduced kcals, keep the protein and gym work up and muscle loss shouldnt be a problem.

Are horror films healthy...? Member 5449, 2203 posts	I've have done well by walking at 3mph for 30 minutes immediately before my normal training... Whatever that may be. Every session For lots of reasons I thought this was a great idea before I did it... And the results were better than even I expected!
