Why ACE FIT has no "fat-burning workout"

The short version

Training can help you keep muscle, get stronger and use energy — but fat loss ultimately requires an energy deficit over time.

You don't need a special collection of 'fat-burning' exercises.

The full version

What we know

You can't choose where you lose fat by training that area. Fat loss comes from overall energy balance.

So what should you train?

Any program you'll stick to. Strength training helps preserve muscle. Cardio and daily movement add energy use.

What actually matters

  1. 01Fat loss comes from a deficit over time
  2. 02No exercise burns fat from one spot
  3. 03Lift to keep muscle
  4. 04Pick a program you'll stick with
