Just out of curiosity, why has it been promoted so highly in the bodybuilding world? It was used for decades with proven results but now a select group of people are saying that is doesn't have anymore benefits than eating less calories or doing cardio at any time. Maybe it was placebo? It still burned fat and that was the goal. So what is the problem?
It reminds me of people who say that "home remedies" don't work but in reality they worked for 100's of years.
There are so many "scientific" studies out there that prove then disprove theories that were "absolute" just a few short years ago.
Does fasted cardio work for reducing fat? Yep
Does unfasted cardio work? Yep
Does dropping calories below maintenance work for losing fat? Yep
Here is the best advice that anyone can give you. Pick one and just do it.
I appreciate that you don't think that I am stupid. I would be utterly crushed lol.Lots of things have been promoted in Bb that were bullshit. I mean it's where the term broscience comes from. You say it was used for decades with proven results. Yeah. But so is unfasted cardio. I don't think you are stupid by any means but you consistently fail to understand correlation does not equal causation.
We could debate that many many many many home remedies do work and have worked for hundreds of years but it would be pointless. I think that finding more efficient ways to get equal or better results are great but saying things like broscience or some other name to dispute that something actually works is silly. Its in our nature to find better ways to do things. Even the caveman used tools lol.And many many many home remedies did not actually work for hundreds of years. And even if they did with that line of thinking we would have never left the cave. Because why would we. The cave works.
Not sure why quotes around scientific. But again you misunderstand what science is. It's not sure. It's never absolute. Only religion is absolute. Studies don't prove. They suggest or demonstrate a hypothesis.
I completely agree.But my advice on cardio? Ewww don't do that lol
negatives if the intensity is bumped up.
no fasted cardio for you!!!
