What is the best order to lose weight? Doing first the strength training (weight training) or cardiovascular training?




If you make the first strength training (weight training) and then the aerobic training, this order is more effective to losing weight, since for the strength training the body obtains energy from its reserves of glycogen. This way when you begin the aerobic exercise, after the strength training, the glycogen reserves are greatly diminished, and the body get the energy it needs more quickly from the reserves of fat, once that aerobic exercise requires more energy (burning more calories), this order of training becomes more effective weight loss.
