5 Facts About Weight Training And How To Burn More Body Fat You think cardio burns more fat? Think again!

How many times have YOU seen it?

You walk into a gym and you see hundreds of cardio machines. New machines every week, so it seems. You see the "cardio bunnies" on these devices that peddle, walk and stair-climb you to nowhere. Men, women, even kids.

Every single one of these folks wanting the same thing as you: To burn off unwanted body fat.

If you pay attention, you also notice that very few of these hard-working gym-goers ever change their body! They look the same week after week, year after year.

There’s 5 key reasons for this, but the main reason is simply this: Cardio does not burn fat nearly as fast or as efficiently as weight training!

If you do not believe me, you will after you read this article. Here we go....

Fact 1:
Weight training done correctly reduces dangerous belly fat faster than cardio.

Weight training done at a rapid pace with sufficient resistance releases a tremendous amount of fatty acids into the bloodstream and decreases insulin resistance. Both cardio and weights get this job done equally well... BUT weight training increases lean body mass which has a direct effect on reversing insulin disorders. (Cuff et. al, 2003) The area most affected is called truncal obesity—or "ugly belly fat" for the rest of us. Yes... weight training reduces belly fat (when done correctly) faster than cardio. And lets face it: Most of us want a better midsection. It’s not only sexier, it’s more healthy too.

Fact 2:
Weight training releases free fatty acids that can be used up by moderate cardio AFTER the session.

Want to burn a lot more body fat? Weight train the way I suggest on the next page... then hit some moderate cardio. Burn off those fatty acids that weight training releases. Those fatty acids mostly come from your belly fat, arm fat, thighs, butt... all the places you love to hate. Do it the way I suggest on the following page and you can burn that fat off faster than ever.

Fact 3:
Weight training produces a by-product that burns fat.

You know that burning feeling you experience when you lift weights? It is caused by lactic acid. Weight training produces about 300% more lactic acid than cardio training for obvious reasons—you are using more muscle. If you Google the subject you’ll find MOST trainers telling you to avoid lactic acid build-up by training with "light weights". Nonsense! Lactic acid has now been linked to the most powerful fat-burning hormone there is: hGH. The American Society of Exercise Physiologists reported that increased lactic acid was linked to increased natural production of fat-burning hGH. If you train the way I suggest on the following page you’ll get just enough lactic acid release to do the trick.......
