Why Extra Cardio Might NOT Be Helping You Lose More Fat | Ep 111

Fit Take with Joey Gast

Ever start a "dieting phase" or fat loss phase and think the first line of action should be to increase your cardio in order to burn more calories to shed more fat?
While this might seem logical by thinking "more calories burned equals more fat loss" - right?
BUT there are diminishing returns as that cardio reaches extreme levels - especially if you aren't doing any resistance training along the way.
In today's episode, I'm diving into what's called the Exercise Energy Compensation Model, where I'll be explaining how and why filling your week with hours of cardio might actually be hurting your fat loss, along with slowing your metabolism down.
