| Weight Training Plus Cardio
Exercises At Myofitness we understand that you must weight train for long-term weight loss. Cardio alone just isn't enough. We don’t waste your time doing just cardio. With weight training you get the same benefits of cardio plus a lot more. Weight training is not just for looking better on the beach. Weight training builds lean muscle, which is your metabolism. Weight loss with cardio alone will make you go from a big pear shape to a small pear shape. It will not develop muscle to give you an athletic shape.
BENEFITS OF WEIGHT TRAINING VS. BENEFITS OF
CARDIO EXERCISES
One pound of muscle burns 50 calories in 24 hours and fat burns 3 calories in 24 hours. Muscle is the only metabolically active tissue in your body. This means the more muscle you have the more calories you burn when you’re sleeping or sitting. Muscle needs to burn calories just to maintain it self. Nutrition is 70% of the results you are looking for. This applies to both weight loss and muscle gain. You need to eat 5-6 small meals a day. You need to consume approximately .75 grams of protein per pound of body weight, 1 to 2 grams of carbs per pound of body weight, .3 grams of fat per pound of body weight, and no more than 40 grams of sugar a day. Depending on your goals and how much you train these amounts will vary. You can lift weights and do cardio all you want, but you won’t lose the weight unless you’re consistent with nutrition. If you consume too few calories you’re body goes into starvation mode. This means you are training your body to store fat quicker. Why You Need Myofitness Personal Training Being healthy and looking fit is a science; it’s
not done by chance. At Myofitness we have mastered this science.
