Cardio Programs Does Not Work The Same For Everybody

by Ricardo Daryans

It’s a strange thing how cardio doesn’t work the same for all men and women. You have maybe tried with it, and, maybe, it didn’t gave you the results you were looking for. Here you will find why and what to do to achieve the best results in your cardio trianing program.

Most of people who work in a cardio program do seven, ten or more hours per week, and still have fat in their waist to burn for a long time. But there are other people who look great with the same or with even a smaller lapse of time. Some researchers in Great Britain went insight into this paradox, and studied 35 overweight men and women, who weren’t previously exercising.

Subjects exercised 5 times per week for 12 weeks. That’s a lot of exercise, but it helped the subjects lose an average of 8.2 pounds, which is great - I was positively surprised by the results. So cardio will work for some people, however, in my experience, it works best in young men, who need the help the least!

If we analyse the results we’ll find some surprises. The best subject lost 32.3 pounds in 12 weeks, but the worst subject actually gained 3.74 pounds. That’s an inmense variance in fat loss terms.

So, these were not good news for the scientists. At least not for the ones that wanted to go home. They discovered there were 2 groups of people, they called them “compensators” and “non-compensators”. The first ones were hungrier and consumed extra calories every day, whiping the slate clean in cardio results terms. So, they lost just small amounts of weight.

You have to check your appetite and calorie intake to see if you are “compensating” for your efforts. If you want to eat more than nothing after your cardio training, then maybe you are in the compensators group and need an special cardio program designed to your needs. It may be better for you to use it’s better for you to use a program of high-intensity resistance and interval training (i.e. Turbulence Training) for your weight loss efforts.

The research of a professor in Australia (Professor Steve Boucher) has show that interval training increases hormones called catecholamines. If that hormone increases, causes fat-burning benefits like reducing appetite, among others.

I don’t know you, but i know that if you are reading this, then you are not in the small group of people who lose 33 pounds after 12 weeks of cardio. And that’s not bad at all, there’s still hope for people for you or me who wants to look and feel ok.

Well, first of all, you have to check your appetite and know a little more about your condition. There’s a lot for you to do to get the look you want (or need, for medical reasons). Beat the curse of cardio with high-intensity Turbulence Training.
