Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best workout style for losing fat?
A combination of strength training and HIIT cardio. Strength training preserves muscle mass (which keeps your metabolism high), while HIIT creates a large calorie burn in a short time. Don't just do cardio -- guys who only run or cycle end up skinny-fat.
How important is diet vs. exercise for fat loss?
Diet is about 80% of fat loss. You can't out-train a bad diet -- a single fast food meal can erase an hour of hard cardio. Use training to build and preserve muscle, and use nutrition to create the calorie deficit. Both matter, but food comes first.
Will lifting weights help me lose fat faster?
Absolutely. Muscle tissue burns more calories at rest than fat tissue. Every pound of muscle you add raises your daily calorie burn. Strength training also creates an afterburn effect (EPOC) that keeps your metabolism elevated for hours after the workout.
How long does it take to see fat loss results?
With a consistent 500-calorie daily deficit, expect to lose about 1 lb per week. You'll see scale changes in 1-2 weeks and noticeable visual changes in 4-6 weeks. Take progress photos monthly -- the mirror and the scale don't always agree.
Should I do fasted cardio for fat loss?
It doesn't matter. Fasted vs. fed cardio makes virtually no difference for total fat loss over time. What matters is your total calorie deficit over the day and week. Do your cardio whenever it fits your schedule and when you feel strongest.
