Oh dear. Just read another article in which they say the liss is a proven way to lose fat. They state that it's better to run for between 30 and 90 minutes but that for those looking to maintain muscle mass running for more than 45 minutes could lead to catabolism! !!

DON'T RUN THEN!!!

How is running going to keep your pulse rate in the fat burning zone? It won't. It's not liss! It's called jogging and it's what overweight people do for a few weeks because they think it'll get them thin. Most of them give up and go back to eating shit food after a few weeks.

It's a biological thing. It's how our bodies work. They don't respond to the latest article. Nature is a bit too clever for that.

Bottom line is, for simplicity sake, the slower we go the more fat we burn and eventually the faster we go the more stored sugar we burn. It's a sort of sliding scale. And in the middle we burn equal amounts of each. This is extremely simplified but you get the point.

If you want to burn fat using low intensity, don't go for a long run!
