Fasted Cardio

Ok my friends, I’m sharing some fitness tips that work for me! I get asked all the time what my workout routine is to get fit. Specifically how I got my stomach toned after having my twins WITHOUT surgery! There are definitely a lot of factors that go into that! Some being I was fortunate enough to skip the C-section, good genes, and of course dedicated consistency!

So let’s get to ONE of my tips!

FASTED CARDIO:

Is doing cardio without any food in your body. BUT, doing the cardio in your fat burning heart rate zone.

How to calculate your fat burning zone for your age.

I like to wake up before my kids & cycle for 20 min. When in this zone, it should feel like you could continue at that pace alllll day 😊️

When you work out in your fat-burning heart rate zone, your body taps into fat stores for energy instead of using basic sugars and carbohydrates. This can lead to burning that fat layer over your muscle. —-> You want to stay in the fat burning cardio zone so you don’t 𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧 𝗺𝐮𝐬𝐜𝐥𝐞! My goal is to HAVE muscle tone! So I will stick to my fasted cardio, then go fuel up with either a protein shake or high protein breakfast, then I will get in a muscle building workout including weights.

This is a basic overview, so let me know if you have questions! I’m happy to answer!
