NEGLECT STRENGTH TRAINING.
They either stop it altogether or dial it back way too much.
The problem with doing that is twofold:
[1] Strength training uses your “energy hungry” Fast-Twitch muscle fibers
… So you burn (more) calories strength training.
Plus, you maintain the muscle you do have, and can even build more.
Therefore, if you don’t train for strength, you’ll lose strength, and probably muscle. Especially if you’re doing “extra cardio.”
[2] You’re too tired from extra cardio / conditioning to do any meaningful strength training…
… So you skip it, or “Halfway Herbert” it, which at best keeps the strength you have, but usually at worst, makes you lose what you worked so hard to gain in the first place.
A 2010 Danish study found that those who did 60 minutes of cardio a day burned less fat and lost less weight than those who did 30 minutes of cardio a day.
Plus, they were more tired. |
