Default Re: Toning

There are three things guys have to do to keep bodyfat percentage down

1. Weight train. It doesnt matter for the reps because weight training is not about burning fat its about building the muscle mass. doing 12-15 reps is actually wrong. If you want to look lean, you wil need big muscles combined with low body fat. To do taht you need to train for max strength in weight room to build muscle mass. Weight room isnt used for burning fat, theres another place to do that...

2. Cardio Exercise. Do cardio about 60% of your max heart rate at least 4 times a week. This is when your fat is burning not in the weight room!

3. Most importantly: eat healthy. if you wana lose bodyfat, no more pop, chips, McDonalds, fries or any sugary or fatty food from now on. Eat twice as much fruit and drink at LEAST 16 cups of water a day! this is essential.
