A lot of research on this.

Physiologically, there’s really no BODY COMPOSITION or FAT LOSS benefit to cardio. This comes from decreasing calories

IE.. If you eat 3000 calories to maintain, it doesn’t make MUCH of a statistical difference if you eat 2500 or eat 3000 and burn 500 extra from cardio to lose fat.

In addition, your body adapts to cardio FAST. So the 300 calories you burn week 1 can be more like 220 by week 3, it just gets less effective.

Obviously it’s not quick like that. It does depend on the individual, some have less adaptive metabolisms and don’t even need to change calories/macros on a diet and others need changes every few weeks because progress stalls.

Cardio is beneficial from a health standpoint, to improve work capacity and potentially speed up fat loss. But it is by no means necessary to lose fat.

Most of my athletes who want to lose fat, their cardio is getting 10k steps per day, as they don’t have a lot of time and I’d rather have them prioritize weights.

Also a coach.

I recently read an article that your body adapts to exercise by using less calories while at rest so you may end up burning the same amount of calories 🤯
Based on that cardio would make the most sense because you’re building muscle that burns more calories while at rest.
However, I do cardio for the heart/lung benefits.

Should read weight training makes the most sense
