This particular workout promises results in 8 weeks and it does work. You have options over which cardio and weight routine you would like to do. So that is equal to kCal per day which is a lot of running - that works out to about 12 km a day for an 80km man, for example.

That deficit can be created by exercise alone you'd have to run a whole lot to do it this way! And the combination works most effectively, for a number of reasons, but to illustrate very simply: That adds up to kCal, and the weight loss is the result. So the answer to your question is that much more rapid weight loss is possible because: I'm going to try to cover some of this in a kind of "wrap up" of the series post next week some time! Is it possible for an endurance athlete to preferentially burn fat during exercise vs carbo loading for fuel?

There maybe a difference in efficiency or effectiveness between the weekend warrior and the professional triathlete or cyclist or marathoner. I am curious, as I think about the results of an athlete like Dean Karnazes sp? We weekend warriors, those who might fare well in our age group in local events, have been pushed to carbo load for fuel, and I wonder if it's really worth it.

But, it is impractical on a bicycle, I concede. Hi Cheryl Yes, definitely. That's a big part of adapting to training. And it's a topic I'll definitely cover in the future. And time and my energy levels don't allow me to go into it right now, but I'll definitely get onto it some time in the future.

Short version - training improves the ability to burn fat, without question. And diet and other strategies to drive fat burning may offer a performance advantage. The evidence on that is not yet clear. Stick with carbs for now, and train hard!

Ah yes, see how easily 'we' are drawn to complexity and silver-bullets - in nearly complete disregard of your caution about this in your first post on Exercise and Weight Loss. For normal folks, eating less is the only significant way to affect weight. With that in mind, the most important exercise - pushing the plate away Exercise for fitness, for fun, for the sense of accomplishment, not for weight loss.

Hi Ron You're right about the key point about exercise, but wrong about losing sight of the central point. This is a series, remember, and there's more to come. The goal here was always to write about exercise and weight. And had I done a series on diet and weight loss, then perhaps I'd have written more about diet. There's more to come, though, and a post I'd like to do is to look at diet vs exercise and do it properly. And what is the role of exercise? It's not just fitness, but that's a post that I still have to do.

So while you're right, give the series a chance to develop before deciding that it's lost! Oh, I'm absolutely reading every word and learning a lot. And very much appreciate all that you do. I like the way Hunter Allen splits this topic here http: Situation 1 is clearly for those interested in losing weight. Situation 2 keeps a sharp focus on endurance performance. I'm only interested in the latter. In an extention of that, can you comment on low glycemic training?

Ron wolf said "For normal folks, eating less is the only significant way to affect weight. Figures above show how an 'average' male might expect to burn kCal by running 5 miles. It's perfectly reasonable for someone to run 5 miles 3 times per week or the equivalent in their chosen form of activity. No change in diet, and you could expect to lose 1lb per fortnight. Sounds like a healthy, sustainable, rate of weight reduction to me. The problem isn't that the sums for exercise due to weight loss don't work. The problem is that an exercise programme like this 3 x 1hr per week is seen as beyond normal people.

Keep up the great work! The problem isn't that the sums for exercise due to weight loss don't work Hibbard - regarding your shameless and silly product plug - sorry, you are years too late. I don't see a way to contact you directly, but just to be sure you saw this article in today's NYT: The article still seems to promote this idea of fat burning to lose fat mass when the issue is not substrate usage but creating a deficit.

Usain Bolt does very little "fat burning" exercise yet is quite lean as are his fellow competitors. If a person is time limited as most people are then a good strategy is to increase the intensity of one or two exercise sessions a week to create a larger energy deficit and avoid overeating to eliminate that deficit completely. One of the good things about the studies in TIME mag was that it helped drive home the point that exercise does not give you free rein to eat all you want. Contact him to get best dental solution.

Contact him to get the best solution. How does one calculate calories burned based on time in heart rate zones ? I've used the following: For folks who are following the general advice here and losing weight through a combination of ramping up training and reducing caloric intake, is there a "science" to the optimal target body fat say, for an elite, but no pro, cyclist who specializes in hillclimbs? Is it a reasonable lower limit? Would love to read the next instalment in this series, wondering when you will write the next part? That said, I think you missed the opportunity to clarify a few points.

People need a sense of scale… and though you hit on it, you need to refine it. Hence… this type of training stimulates the production of more mitochondrial enzymes to oxidize more fat — at certain intensity levels — and spare the glycogen.

Romjin's graphs - and more precise examination of the fuel use in sport can be found on Montana State's University site: Low rates of glycogen depletion in either a single exercise bout - or over time, say weeks or months — tantamount to the need to refuel with less carbs and hence by defacto, a greater percentage of fat and protein and yes, overall caloric intake must be relatively lower just like the bank account analogy. Or vice versa with high depletion rates via high intensity exercise Thus, balancing — once again — health and performance — it would better serve your readers to simply say that matching carb intake — in principle, against the relative depletion - would optimize both repleting glycogen stores in muscles and the health of the body.

Overstocking carbs remember… finite storage overloads the liver and converts the carbs to triglycerides. Moderate exercise has no meaning until a person 'feels' a shift to a higher intensity level. He still didn't get the relationship you have worked hard to elucidate. You hit it right on otherwise! Asking WHEN fuel substrate burns is the best way to examine energy use. But at this point you still need to present the second law of thermodynamics as part of the picture.

Applying the second law of thermodynamics — relative to human physiology - will clarify the misunderstandings that are prevalent in this post. I will explain the problem with this soon, below.

You have created a series of posts that lead people to think and create scenarios in their comments the following belief: This belief is mistaken, shortsighted, and again… it ignores the second law of thermodynamics. At this point, I am purposely — but ONLY momentarily — omitting exercise, training adaptations, and substrate utilization. Only then will people develop a more discrete sense of how the body loses mass either fat or lean mass. So hang in there. Again read Fein and Feinman for the details. To get this… you must examine isocaloric diets.

Whether a human loses mass or not, energy is still conserved. Dependent on macronutrient mix, the grand total energy ingested within in an open system is expressed into different forms — like in a light bulb, either into light or heat. This works for a closed system… like a bomb calorimeter — but the body is not a closed system. Thus, most people mistakenly think the body works with food like a closed system and that a calorie is a calorie, is a calorie — like in a bomb calorimeter — which can only convert energy from into one form, and that is heat.

Florescent bulbs partition more energy into light than heat compared to an incandescent bulb — and in the cold Minnesota winters — the new police car flashers do not melt the snow readily like the old lights did! Efficiency increases… but into what form!? Hence, with the human, body mass is a third variable to consider in the equation of how energy may be used and partitioned. Read Fein and Feinman as well as Michael R. More confusion arises from this statement: Over time — those who train for performance or want to get leaner — do NOT want to lose glycogen in their muscles anyway!

People who want to look lean still want their muscles to be firm — full of glycogen, water, and mitochondrial enzymes, thus, fat mass may drop quite a bit while total body mass may not change as appreciably as one hopes for — on a scale. Ignoring the post burn effect — the events of burning fat and removing it from the body are as separate from one another as people imagine. But all this is small potatoes in this muddled scenario. The eating part is where most people go completely astray. The specificity applied to substrate utilization must be applied on the other side of the energy equation.

The fundamental issue is — instead - how the energy is directed, transformed, and partitioned — as you have detailed accurately ONLY in terms of substrate utilization. Carb intake should be precisely adjusted against glycogen depletion — in order to: Again, another missed opportunity — even though you presented the science on substrate utilization — to present the dietary adjustments needed to refine the energy balance equation. The take home message is about energy and specificity! You need to hammer home that the fundamental issue is to eat energy according to selective burning!

This is the paramount value of the Romjin graphs. Besides… people who eat either for performance or weight loss — will benefit and hopefully become less confused. Eliminating confusion, even better. At any rate - for practical and clarification purposes — it is now crucial to present the physiological effects that arise from isocaloric diets eating different ratios of macronutrients that supply the same total amount of calories in addition to explaining substrate utilization and efficiency changes that are due to exercise intensity and training adaptations.

Alluding to and examining secondary factors such as post exercise metabolic rate and tertiary factors such as changes in leptin output or how the heart uses lactate sounds impressive, but will only add more confusion on top of the confusing scenario that already has been established. By clarifying the science of substrate utilization — you have revealed how to more precisely adjust carbs and fat due to selective burning, i. Bring it on home! I ignore protein like you do for the sake of simplicity. Moreover, it is not a gross oversimplification to ignore protein, but rather a necessity for teaching clearly.

Nobody, not even Bolt, can maintain max intensity for more than approximately 10 seconds. Fat use approaches zero key word; approaches — but only for a relatively super brief explosive moment. Thus, even still — guys like Lance Armstrong and Usain Bolt are utilizing HUGE amounts of fat substrate — especially when exercising below lactate threshold — which is usually insanely high in elites. Only elite endurance athletes really push that curve to the extreme, but even they do not reduce it zero - EVER. Using extremes is a useful tool for getting points across; I use them too.

But they deviate from reality and practice, especially over time. Most of the posts created various energy balance scenarios and vainly tried to sort things out based on good science — but none of it works or becomes clear if we ignore the second law. By truly and more precisely balancing carb intake against the selective depletion of glycogen — we can more precisely stock — without overfilling — muscle and liver stores.

Now we optimize three elements — performance, weight loss body composition really and health! Hi Stewart Good question - the answer is as soon as I have enough time The problem with these posts is that they take longer to do than normal posting, because of the level of technical information. Maybe two hours to write a decent post, whereas commenting on the Olympics and mental performance takes 30 minutes, and the running shoe posts I'm doing now take 5 minutes, because all I'm doing is cutting and pasting from an interview done earlier this year.

So time is the issue - the series was interrupted by travel with the Springbok Sevens team, and I'm now traveling again. Hopefully in April I will have time to get to it. I read all the parts, and being a recreational endurance sports enthusiast-athlete with at least a little bit more information I have a question. The energy values listed for foods are measured by burning them right? So the kcal listed is the bonding energy in the molecules and some bonding energy among molecules.

Force in N , x: The rest of the energy is transformed to heat and hopefully dissipated.

And he should do the math using the calorie burned value. There are a lot of tables which tells us how much calories we burn in an hour for a given activity. Does these tables really include calories burned or do they list amount of work done? Ross and Jonathan, I'd like to hear your thoughts re the training "supplements" that purport to encourage the body to preferentially use fat as fuel.
