    Many people get discouraged when doing cardio because it's boring to them. Cardio exercise is not limited to walking on a treadmill. The days of boring cardio are over. Cardio can be fun and invigorating. There are many different forms of cardio that you can implement to break out of that same boring routine. Using a variety can make cardio fun and enjoyable.

    Best Time To Do Cardio:

    There has been a lot of debate regarding "the absolute best time to do cardio." The best time to do cardio is when it's best for you.

    The discussion of fasted cardio is also a topic that has been beaten to death. Does fasted cardio burn muscle? Fasted cardio only burns muscle if you are not eating enough food of quality. Under-eating combined with fasted cardio equals muscle loss.

    Kicking Up Cardio To Burn Fat

    You can take your cardio to a new level and crank up your fat-burning process by implementing HIIT (high-intensity interval training) which is alternating short bursts of high-intensity with moderate recovery periods.

    Taking Your Fat Burning To New Levels

    While cardio is a fat-loss advantage in any fitness program, a diet consisting of quality foods and strength training exercises creates a defense shield to prevent fat gain. For a well-rounded fitness program, include all three components (good nutrition, strength training, and cardio).
