Improving Fat Oxidation through Mitochondrial Function

Benefits of positioning zone two training for improving fat oxidation in the body can be achieved by focusing on improving mitochondrial function rather than relying solely on training in a fasted state or following specific diets. While strategies like training in a fasted state may stimulate mitochondrial fat oxidation, caution is advised to prevent overexertion or becoming catabolic. Managing intensity and frequency is crucial, and the focus should primarily be on enhancing mitochondrial function to enhance fat oxidation.
