Why Steady State Cardio Actually Sucks in New Orleans

Why Steady State Cardio Actually Sucks in New Orleans(as a primary fat loss tool)

There are 2 major reasons in my book why standard cardio is a big loser for fat loss.

Reason 1 The first is EPOC. EPOC stands for Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption. Basically what EPOC does is tells us how long it takes the body to return to its pre-exercise metabolic rate. So after a bout of intense exercising your body will continue to burn extra calories for a certain period of time. From a fat loss perspective, the longer the EPOC the better. Some activities like weight training have an EPOC of 30 plus hours. The EPOC for steady state cardio is approximately zero. Yessir, give or take when you step off that treadmill or bike you are done burning calories - done.

From time to time I like to share "Personal Moments" with my readers and clients to let them know, I'm just not this... "Super Serious Fitness Dude who Lives and Breathes Exercise and Boot Camp All Day in New Orleans" And even though, I LOVE my Profession and I'm VERY Passionate about it..... My main focus and True Passion in my Life is spending time with my daughter Alysse!

I made this video about a year ago when I first got my "Flip cam".

At the time I had just finished taking my daughter to go see the Movie, High School Musical 3.

In the video my daughter is re-creating a dance number in the movie that they sang a song to called "You got 16 Minutes".

Really I have no idea what the songs name is all I know is that they repeated the words "16 minutes" about 30 times.

Anyway checkout the video and at the end you will see my daughter actually takes the camera from me and starts asking me questions!

Make sure you leave a comment below! I love to hear your thoughts! New Orleans Boot Camp
