Can exceeding your target heart rate during aerobics have a detrimental effect on muscle gain and fat loss?

If you are in a fairly good physical condition going a little higher every now and then can be safe but over exertion should be avoided. It is possible to exceed the upper limit of your target heart rate without any ill effects, as long as you do not have coronary artery disease or are at risk for a heart attack.

What it may do, though, is leave you with a musculoskeletal injury or sore joints and muscles. Exceeding you target heart rates (THR) would not allow you exercise for longer duration which is most important while exercising.

Also remember to reevaluate your THR about every month or so based on your RHR (resting heart rate). The best way is to stay on equal carbohydrates, proteins, and fats combined with exercise.

What is the difference between weight loss and fat loss? Which of the two is recommended more than the other?

Weight loss means reducing weight by means loss of fluid, body fat, lean mass, muscle and other connective tissues. Muscle loss during weight loss can be restricted by regularly lifting weights or doing push-ups maintaining sufficient protein intake.

Where as for fat loss people aim to reduce percentage of body fat and it depends on factors such as calories in versus calories out, hormonal control, and metabolic efficiency. Additionally, as muscle tissue is denser than fat, fat loss results in increased loss of body volume compared with muscle loss.

Fat and carbs are the fuel to produce calories and they burn even while you are watching TV or running around a track. A successful fat-loss program centers on the reduction of body fat levels with minimal disruption to your metabolic rate and energy levels

The Man Boob Fight

Do you remember the Seinfeld episode with the “manzierre”, where Kramer developed a bra for men who were developing breasts. It was a very funny episode, but it would not be at all funny if it was happening to you. Let’s face it, having man boobs will give you low self-esteem and make you feel unattractive. So how can you beat this…..?

 First off- what causes man boobs?

There are 2 main causes for man boobs. The first comes from fatty tissue from being over weight. The second reason is caused by a medical condition called Gynecomastia, which is a hormonal imbalance in which the body produces more estrogen and produces less testosterone. Certain medications can be the cause of this imbalance. If man boobs (aka moobs ) do develop other than just being over weight this is a medical condition and you should seek medical advice. But, if you are over weight and it is just fatty tissue covering your pectoris muscle- I may have hope for you after all!
