Strength muscle

The notion that there is fat burning zone and you have exercise for a long duration within that zone is totally and completely illogical. Research is yet to prove that one specific kind of exercise is a better fat burner than another. The best way to increase overall fitness levels and stamina is to constantly challenge your body with a variety of resistance and cardiovascular exercises, which could be of different speeds and intensity levels. Challenge and variety is the key to effective training and exercise sessions. Also there is no evidence showing that consuming excess amount of protein will increase your muscle strength.

In fact, protein consumed in excess of what the body needs will be converted to fat. It is true that athletes in heavy training (muscular endurance lasting 60 to 90 minutes) may need to allocate a slightly greater percentage of their calories from protein, while non-athletes require only 12 to 15 per cent. This is because the body may have reduced protein stores during heavy training and workout periods. People in general don’t, however necessarily need to consume excess amounts of protein to meet this increased body requirement since it can be met by eating a well-balanced and nutritious diet with protein rich foods during periods of heavy training. If you thought that drinking water while exercising could give you cramps or that muscle turned into fat when you stopped working out then think again. A healthy body needs to be supported by a sound mind, so get your facts right and get fighting fit
