If you want a slim body, you have to do a lot of cardio, right? This misconception is extremely popular among those who want to lose weight. However, not many people know that cardio can actually turn into a fat trap. Not only can aerobic exercises prevent you from losing fat but they can also make you gain extra pounds!
For example, when you regularly do the same exercise, your body gets better at this activity. As a result, it doesn’t need to put in as much effort as before, so you don’t spend as much energy as you used to and, thus, don’t burn enough calories. The best thing you can do in this case is diversify your workouts. To learn which other cardio mistakes you should avoid, watch our new video!

SUMMARY:
– If you want to become slimmer, strength training works better. First of all, such workouts build up lean muscle mass, and this decreases fat stores and boosts your metabolism.
– You burn many more calories during and after high-intensity workouts. This is because the fat-burning effect of such exercises can last for up to 24 hours. As a result, this makes you lose fat much faster.
– The muscles you use to do cardio exercises do depend heavily on carbs and fats to get energy. But contrary to what many people believe, your body won’t get this energy from fat stores in your belly or hips.
– If you eat a lot and then train a lot, you can exhaust your body and overtrain. Consequently, you may suffer from burnout and injuries, your immune system will get weaker, and your sleep will become less restful.
– Cortisol negatively influences your hunger-regulating hormones. This makes you feel hungry, and the worst thing about this is that you feel starved not only during your workout session but long after you finish it as well.
– Light weights don’t make much difference when you use them during your cardio session. They are too insignificant to strengthen your muscles, and they don’t help you burn more calories.
– Many people believe they can get slim by training for half an hour 3 times a week. However, that’s not enough to become fit. By doing such workouts, you only stay moderately active.
– If you feel that morning workouts aren’t for you since, instead of feeling energized, you become tired and unhappy, do them when it feels best for you.
– If you start your workout with an intense cardio session, you might not have enough strength left for effective strength training.

Which do you like better, cardio or strength training? Why? 🏋🏃
I have been working out for 5-6 days a week for decades now. I usually do either a 30 minute run, or a 30 minute swim. After the runs, I usually do some weight/resistance training like pullups/situps/pushups/curls. the weight training is hard and not very enjoyable, so I keep it short and sweet. I used to over eat, but have learned to control my appetite for the large part. With all this in mind, I am healthy in general, have kept in a healthy weight range, am going to hit 57 years old this year, and still going strong. The key is JUST DO IT. Don't worry about the little details that this video harps on. Low intensity cardio, non-stop, for 30 minutes at least 3 times a week, and you will be healthy.
Come on ppl….It ultimately comes down to what you eat….and how much you eat. Of course adding exercise helps.
Losing weight is all DIET !!!!! I see plenty of obese people lifting weights and running on trend mills daily. It’s all about what you eat , you can lose weight without even exercising… it’s just an aiding kit for faster results and to build muscle.
So much bad information in this video.
I rarely exercise but when i do, i do cardio for a hour. I loss 106 lbs in 11 months. Was 350 lbs in March 2020 and now im at 244 lbs. Do what it's best for you. Test new stuff along the journey. Everyone's body is different. I just diet and eat healthier. I didn't have any clue what i was doing but i figured it out along the road. I've been doing low carb and intermittent fasting, best combo. Low calories and high volume food works too. Water is your best friend. I loss a lot of fats but loss a lot of muscle mass too but don't give up guys! ❤️
This is simply not true …
I have lost 10kg in 3 months only with walking exercise combined with diet. No strength training…
Lost 8 kgs in one month on just cardio and workout dances 😐…
I have to admit after 4 weeks dieting and gym exercise losing 10 kgs i hit a brick wall. I have been going gym for the past 5 days eating all the correct food but i am stuck on
80 kgs. My goal is 72 kgs am getting a little frustrated but i will get there.
I do a 5 minute warm up then light weights and 30 minutes of cardio 4 days a week and just cardio 1 day a week and it works fine for me. I got back in the gym last week and I lost 6 lbs. I also ate really clean with lean protein and a gallon of water daily.
Why not both
Those models are too skinny
Eating before working out, even if 3 – 4 hours pass, doesn't work for me. I don't like yogurt and not much of a fruit person. Working out on an empty stomach is better for me.
"according to fitness trainers" this video lost all credibility right there.
If you analyze that much when will you live & enjoy your one and only life 🙄 its more stressful, maybe better to just let go…
Tired of not eating your favarite food to lose weight??
TRY this amazing product.

Pretty sure doing any of these mistakes is better than my usual workout which is ordering pizza and stalking the pizza tracker app.
You have to experiment different exercises and see what works better for your body
