What type of exercise is most effective for burning fat?
Let's talk about the difference between low-intensity exercise and high-intensity exercise.
Low-intensity exercise or aerobic (means with oxygen) is very good for stress, adrenal issues, adrenal fatigue syndrome, and for good quality of sleep. For the first 25 minutes of walking, you are going to burn your sugar then after 25 minutes, it is all fat burning.
While high-intensity exercise or anaerobic (without air, full-body high-intensity interval training, is primarily burning sugar but the fat burning occurs through hormonal waves that happen during sleep with a 14 to 48 hour delay.
Low-Intensity Exercise (Aerobic) Benefits:
• Lot of Oxygen
• Low Stress
• Improvement in Brain Function
• Helps Regenerate Brain Cells
Key to High-Intensity Exercise (Anaerobic):
• Don’t over-train
• Don’t do it frequently – Give the body time to heal and recover
• Keep carbs low
