@xenoxorph: is it true na cardio not only burns fat, but it also burns muscle? if tinu-od ba, how will i preserve my muscle mn while doing cardio. my goal mn gd is to build muscle and at the same time get ripped

Any exercise that is done for long period of time will start to burn muscle protein for energy. There really is no scientific evidence that can prove that you can burn fat and build muscle at the same time.. But i personally believe that it is possible with proper nutrition and training. Steady state cardio in the long run will flatten out your muscles because of depleted glycogen and will start breaking protein and fat for energy. I suggest you do H.I.I.T workouts as this is one of the muscle sparing type of workouts out there. Be sure to eat slow digesting carbs the whole day. You don't want to spike any insulin to halt fat burning

@xeno: okay bro, pero what can you say about these mn:

this was posted on Gym Rat's Lounge:
The order in which your body uses fuel is: glucose --> glycogen --> fat --> protein. Your body uses glucose and glycogen as the main energy sources. You use fat as the next energy source. The body rarely, if ever, breaks down protein and uses it for energy.

Glycogen is the primary source for energy when doing activites. Glucose is first converted to glycogen before it can be used for energy.. In the absence of glucose/glycogen, your body will find a secondary source of energy depending on activity level.. Long steady state cardio will burn more fat in the long run while high intensity cardio will burn more glucose.. In the absence of glucose while doing high intensity workouts.. muscle protein is next to be oxidized for energy.. These are not important. You shouldn't even pay attention to this. Whats more important is your overall intake of calories. Losing protein while working out isn't as important as your daily intake of calories. Used up muscle protein can just be replaced after workout. Simple rule. Negative calorie intake -------> Lose fat/muscle.. Positive calorie intake -------> Gain fat/muscle.. Same calorie intake with metabolism --------> Maintain weight.
