Why Cardio 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.

The results: the subjects lose an average of 8.2 pounds, exercising 5 times per week for 12 weeks. By now, it seems cardio works, and in a great way. But wait, there's still more.

Let's go back to the study. There was a huge variance in fat loss between individuals. Check this out...The best subject lost 32.3 pounds in 12 weeks, but the worst subject actually gained 3.74 pounds.

The scientists think they know where things went sour. They classified the subjects into 2 groups, called the "Compensators" and the "Non-compensators". The Compensators were hungrier, and as a result consumed an extra 268 calories per day, all but wiping out their cardio efforts. Therefore, the Compensators lost the least amount of weight, and scientists believe that was due to the huge "compensatory" increase in appetite experienced by this group.

If your appetite increase when you do slow cardio, then it will ruin your cardio training. You will not achieve the same results as other people. Then, maybe is time to change your cardio program and find the right one to your needs. You have to check your appetite and calorie intake to see if you are "compensating" for your efforts. And if it's happening, 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.

The most of people will rarely be in the very small group of people who lose 33 pounds after 12 weeks of cardio. To be realist, there isn't a lot of people who can achieve to loss 8 pounds in that lapse of time with aerobic exercise.

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.
