DIET!!!

i agree bro, best way is to get on a good diet and do cardio 3x/week on an empty stomach for 45 min at 65% of ur max heart rate.

not trying to thread hijack, kuz i think this has to do with this guy as well. when u say cardio for like 30-45 minutes, is that like a jog, slow jog, fast walk, or what? i know u say 65% max heart rate, but i have no idea what mine is

Mix it up. Jogging is great. Swimming is awesome, if you are not a good swimmer then you'll actually burn more. I was a competative swimmer and my stoke is pretty efficient, which really just means that I can do more laps in the same amount of time...time being the key. A warning, swimming will make you extreamly hungry! I mean you'll hit a McDonalds if it's close by after you swim. Therefore, take a protien bar or something with you for right after you swim.

Another thing, I'm not a guru in anabolics, but if you're using Deca and Supertest (or anything for that matter), I think it's best to consider loosing the belly untill AFTER your cycle is over. At least that's what I learned on here. Otherwise you might not eat enough and therefore your supplies will go to waste.

Am I correct on this?

AGREED!! Honestly I have done enough cycles to find that If you eat anything and everything you will gain more useless weight than if you dieted but overall you will gain more useable muscle too.. Grub buddy and diet and shred after

most agree that 85% of max HR is best for fat burning
but 65% might be good for some people

how do u find out ur max heart rate?

220- your age it's the standard way of estimating max HR

Of course, if you follow a good cutting diet (like the cutting sticky in the diet forum, for example) you will stop putting on muscle and lose fat instead due to the caloric deficit.

More calories = gain weight
Less calories = lose weight

Unless you're a genetic superman, you're not going to do both of these at the same time with good results.

sprints are a good way i feel to lose fat quick....i do it alot for boxing.........run for 2 minutes walk for 2 run for 2 walk for two and so on....

Although... once your heart rate goes over a certain level your body burns muscle for energy instead of fat.

They also say with some people the fat around the stomach is the last to go when dieting
