I walk first thing on an empty stomach - dual hit I get some cardio and the dogs get some exercise - just step up the pace and distance pre contest. As for breed I've a 3 legged bully cross staff - loads of character, the others a staffy cross something. bad old man - I didn't know you could do it that many times in one day ;-) now where's that peanut butter...

If I need to shift some pounds I'll go on the cross trainer for about 40 mins varying speed and intensity throughout. I like to do 5 minutes rotating forward, 5 miins back etc. Oh yeah, ussually on a an empty stomach. (the length of time might not be very good to tho for those concerned with prohibitting growth thru to much cardio- I'm not sure) | |

However, in absolute terms you'll burn more fat through high intensity exercise as you'll burn more calories overall. even though a lesser percentage of this will come from fat and more will come from muscle glycogen, more will be burned overall due the higher demands of the exercise but also post exercise fat utlisation due to raised metabolism from the release of catecholamines during high intensity exercise. the catabolic aspect of high intensity exercise only becomes an issue when muscle glycogen levels are low (after about an hour of high intensity exercise), at which point protein can contribute up to 10-15% of fuel used as opposed to the usual 5% when glycogen levels are high. just to clear something up too: during a ten minute sprint the major energy systems being used are primarily the anaerobic glycolytic system (this system CANNOT UTILISE FAT as it takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell rather than the mitochondria), and the aerobic system. the major energy source for exercise of this intensity for this period therefore is muscle glycogen rather than fat. in all exercise all three energy systems are used but the relative contribution of each, and therefore the type of fuel used, varies dramatically depending on the intensity of exercise. do high intensity interval training and for longer than ten minutes but make sure your muscle glycogen levels are high so a high intensity can be maintained for a long period and to minimise any catabolic effect. keep your fat intake no more than 20% and up your carbs slightly in response to ensure high glycogen levels and so maximise carbs role as a protein sparer. alex.

I'll not bore you with the brand name. The interesting claim the advert made was that if you were to utilise cardio alone to promote fat loss, you would need to walk / jog for 30 miles per week. Started doing Tabatas 'Thrusters' thrice weekly when a 30min walk on a cold morning each day was getting too much. Seems to be working. Did them ED on holiday - but unweighted. Even did Tabatas Pressups. Abs ached for days! When it started to get cold on a morning, I started to do Tabatas 'Thrusters' after Bully suggested it - as getting up for a 30min walk was to Seems to be working |
