please recommend me some aerobic exercises and a question
would it be healthier for a novice athlete to have a simple steady cutting diet, with low intake for his goal of fat loss instead of trying the zig zag diet
where i'd eat 2500cal for 2 weeks, then switch to 3500 for 2 weeks ETC. (concentrating on aerobic exercises during cutting, and weight training during gaining)
I'm not concerned about losing muscle now because I'm more concered about losing fat
which would be better?
also, do ab workouts mean anything for fat people
TYVM
for aerobic activities...just stick to normal cardio (running, biking, eliptical, etc) or try swimming.
as for diet - cutting is better for overall fat loss - I don't really see the zigzag approach as being good for anything long term.
ab workouts strengthen the abdominals - that's it. There is no spot reduction. So anyone, fat or thin, who trains abs - in theory develops stronger abs.
