Friends right now I am doing H.I.V.T. I.e. High Intensity Volume Training (you can find it on body space/bodybuilding.com). Is there any other program best suites for fat loss?

    High intensity anything is the best for fat loss as it keeps metabolism firing up to 48 hours after the session. but make sure you're working at 100% all of the time whilst doing it. You should be absolutely dying at the end of it. If you're not then you're not working hard enough.

    fasted cardio. If you're concerned about muscle loss, drink BCAA's whilst doing it.
    Works wonders!
  • I don't do cardio instead I workout with weight as 1hr cardio burns only 100-150 calories and muscle burns more calories. And yes drinking BCAA during workout, also taking glutamine n protein 110gm daily. @nicklaunch91

    Then carry on sir; sounds like you have a plan.
  • TY sir @yogicarl and yup following ketogenic diet
  • @mrsfitzyv8 reason to drink more water is it helps you to remove toxins from your body as u pee more when drink more water & water is 0 calorie drink so ur diet is also maintained & u, ur skin gets healthy.

    Lmfao yes I'm aware of the fact that the more water you drink, the healthier it is. I was just complimenting you on the amount.

    100 calories cardio? Not trying to be mean but if you get out and run six miles it will take about an hour and you burn a lot more than 100 calories. When I was on a mission to be rid of my fat I got up to about thirty miles a week. Combined with some strength training and ab work it melted my gut away. Start slow and build, its addictive

    1. Fasted cardio = very small benefit, suits some and not others, especially if you prefer to be fueled for a workout i.e people who have eaten often find they can do a better workout because they have he energy to do it. Some people like early morning fasted but its all personal choice. The benefits of fasted are really small if you look it up.
    2. High intensity all the time 100%, there is a lot of debate about cardio v resistance or cardio hiit v steady state. They are different and have different benefits, often complementary, so to suest one is better than the other I find unconvincing. For instance the poster talks about intense 100% being important, whilst you will burn more calories at the time, theres also the issue of how long can sustain it for and how long does it take to recover? Am I better off doing 30 mins hiit or 2h steady state? Recovery is very important. The poster suggests we carry on burning for 48hrs after due to EPOC/ Afterburn, but really doesnt back it up and might want to investigate he extent i.e actual measured % increase in calorie burns. Its not as big as he suggests.
    3. The OP suggests the reason he doesnt do cardio is because he burns 100-150 cals an hour, honestly walking burns more than that. In terms of direct calorie burn if you want it, then cardio far outstrips resistance and you can realistically do 500-700 an hour. Resistance is better long term though and has different benefits. the point being his reasoning is wonky.
    4. BCAA only useful if you are deficient in protein. Glutamine unproven.
    5. Waters drinking 5-6l not needed as long as you stay hydrated, which you should be fine with 2l a day. No harm but more is not always better.
    6. Is he losing fat? The 2 inches will represent a mixture of fat, muscle and just straight water.

    You dont have to believe me, just do some research on each of these subjects. Off to gym now to lift some weights and then do some mixed cardio.

    Oh and the best program for fat burn is ensuring you are at an accurate consistent calorific deficit. Lifting will help retain LBM and cardio can add further calorie burns.

    Losing fat is about moderate calorie deficit more than anything else. True HIT training shouldn't exceed 30 minutes or it's not hard enough. Long low intensity cardio does little except burn a bit of body fat. Practically any physical activity will burn glycogen before touching any fat at all.
    When do you burn the most fat? When you're sleeping.

    Try some proper cardio that burns more than 100 cals in an hour though!
