How important is it to do resistance training along with cardio to lose weight?
I am trying hard to lose those last ten pounds and I just stick with losts of cardio mostly all the time. I eat healthy and I just feel that if i do weight training that it will put some weight on since muscle weighs more. I dont want to gain any!!!! Any suggestions, advice etc would be greatly appreciated=)
Weight training combined with cardiovascular exercise is more a more effective weight loss approach than either weight training or cardiovascular exercise done alone. I can’t quote a specific research study, but I’ve read several articles that support this concept. Weight training does several things: burns more calories than during cardio exercise, increases metabolism, and builds lean body mass (muscle). Weight training also increases bone density and promotes bone and joint health. As with any exercise regimen, it’s important to start slow. You should begin with a weight that you can easily perform 20-30 repetitions, and then gradually increase the weight over the second and third week.
