Cardio or fat burn

[oliver2828]

ok guys. Im on sustanon 250 eod shots. I'm my 5th week. A guy at the gym told me to get cut its better to do cardio then fat burn. What works best for you guys. Is this guy an idiot or is cardio really better?

Huh?? What do you mean? Cardio is fat burn! But whats this doing here anyways, this is the STEROID forum.

[rajs]

Im not really getting whats being asked here?

[RUballs0514]

whats the difference. the best time to do cardio/fat burn is in the morning before you eat breakfast because that is when your body is in its most catabolic state

[QuieTSToRM33]

huh ???

[SwoleCat]

What the f*ck is the question??

i think he's referring to what the cardio machines show as the difference between fat burn and cardio. The ones at my gym show where your heart rate should be for "fat burn" and a little bit higher is "cardio"

[rajs]

Arrr,that would make more sense!

yeah sorry that my question wasnt too specific. But yea the modes on the machines are fat burn, cardio, ect ect. my question was which one is better for cut. fat burn is lower intensity and lower target heart rate.

IMO doing cardio is to improve your cardiac muscle and cardiovascular system. Fot fat burn I've heard the lower heart rates are optimal but if you wanna be able to run / fight for a longer time without gassing I would recommend cardio.. IMO this was a legitimate question... At least for me cardio and fat burn are diffrent things... done with a diffrent heart rate

[oliver2828]

thanks for the info. but my question was....which mode is better for getting cut while on sustanon?

thaanks

[stupidhippo]

i would assume the fat burn if you do it as long as needed but then again I dont have solid knowledge to back that up.. I guess it depends also on ypur own max heart rate , aerobic capacity etc... some1 else??

[hoopcat528]

I am on sust and I started doing the "fat burn" mode (lower heart rate but longer time period) instead of the "cardio" mode (higher heart rate but shorter time period) that I usually do.

I seem to be getting more cut with the fat burn mode. Nothing scientific like a bodyfat test to prove it, just what it seems from looking in the mirror.

Higher intensity = higher caloric consumption.

Any other questions?

Higher intensity = higher caloric consumption.

Any other questions?

exactly, just becuase the "fat burn" heart rate is lower don't be fooled. the main reason is that you can stay in that zone much longer. many studies show if you raise your max hrt rate as high as you can for as long as you can then lower it to your "fat burn" zone to rest (back and fourth)= best fat burn. if you run 5 miles every day i guarantee you will burn way more fat running as fast as possible

and you will burn muscle too!

[smiler]

and you will burn muscle too!

that will happen no matter how intense your cardio, you certainly can limit that with a solid diet

[Bruticus]

for me it didnt happen when I dieted down for my competition
didnt lose even 1kg of muscle

[stupidhippo]

Higher intensity changes the metabolism from oxidising fatty acids to utilising glucose. Since all the metabolic pathways are integrated I dunno what this concretically means in sense of shedding fat in the long run...
