Cardio Machines VS.
Real Exercise You often see people in the gym jogging on a treadmill or cycling along on a bike.
Most folks do their exercises on a cardio machine while performing 30-60 minutes of steady pace.
This does not promote any fat and calorie burning in the body and could actually harm the body and expose it to free radicals and to several chronic diseases such as cancer.
Here is why slow steady pace cardio is not all that good for you:

Here is why slow steady pace cardio is not all that good for you:
- Our bodies are designed to perform physical activities in bursts of exertion.
Researches suggests that exercise variables is one of the most important aspects to consider in your training.
If you look in nature, all animals perform a stop-and-go motion instead of steady pace moves.
Us humans, are the only type of animal in nature that try to endure while we train rather than sprint and rest after that. - Most sport games are based on sprints followed by a recovery period.
If you look at the physiques of most soccer and basketball players, or even rugby or tennis players and did I mention 100 meter sprinters, they all have a lean muscular bodies to be proud of.
That is because they train all their lives to do bursts of exertion activities otherwise they will never ever win in their game.
Now look at marathoners physiques.
Their muscles are wasted and they are sickly looking people, and that is because they train to do endure, and run on a steady pace. - Excessive steady state endurance training can damage your body.
Increase in FR production in the body, degenerative joints, reduction of immune function, muscles waste and pro inflammatory response are just some of the side effects of excessive steady state endurance training.
We are simply not built to do this, and that is why it is actually dangerous to follow that type of training regime. - Steady state endurance training only trains the heart at one heart rate range.
Imagine yourself getting a freight from something, or getting really really excited, sad, happy or stressed which we all do on a daily basis.
When you get one of those emotions stirring in your body, your heart rate and blood prussure goes through the roof.
That is no good for you because it is not a natural state for your heart to be in.
Steady state endurance training that train the heart on one type of rate will not prepare you for these situations that you experience every day.
