CARDIO ZONE VS. FAT BURNING ZONE

I get a lot of questions about the “Fat Burning Zone” versus the “Cardio Zone” from people using exercise equipment. The most common question: “The Fat Burning Zone is a less intense exercise, but it’s called fat burning so that’s where I want to be, right?”

The answer: No. While generally the Fat Burning Zone does in fact burn a higher ratio of calories from fat than the Cardio Zone does, overall you’ll burn more calories and therefore more fat in the Cardio Zone. Ideally, you will want to workout at a pace that challenges you individually and you really shouldn’t be too worried about the title of the zone displayed on the machine.

Remember, the basic goal of working out is to burn calories. The more difficult your workout, the more calories you’ll burn.
