Episode notes
Cardio's Ineffectiveness for Fat Loss
- Cardio, as the primary exercise, is ineffective for fat loss and can lead to muscle loss.
- This happens because cardio doesn't signal muscle growth, leading the body to adapt by reducing muscle mass for efficiency.
Prioritizing Strength Training
- Prioritize strength training over cardio for fat loss, as cardio alone doesn't preserve muscle.
- Aim for a good one-mile time for sufficient cardiovascular health and real-world stamina.
Running as a Skill
- Treat running as a skill and practice proper biomechanics to avoid injuries.
- Ignoring running form can lead to chronic pain, especially when returning to running after a long break.
