عَلَى النَّبِيِّThe answer is a confusing yes, and no. Yes, there is a slight bit of truth to the fat burning zone, however in its usefulness for weight loss, the research has been misinterpreted. The concept is that by working out at a lower intensity “fat burning zone” the body doesn’t require getting energy quickly from carbohydrates, and therefore burns more body fat. The reality as we’ll see is different. Let’s take two 00 minute treadmill workouts and compare. Workout A is our lower intensity workout – walking at 0mph on the treadmill Workout B is higher intensity – running at 0mph on the treadmill.
