I do Tae Bo. Can I use this as my Fat Burning Cardio?
Tae Bo is actually a fantastic cardiovascular workout. However, it is a bit too strenuous to work as your Fat Burning Cardio workout. The type of workout Tae Bo gives you is not a fat burning workout. It burns sugar rather than fat. Your Fat Burning workout is very specific to the 6 Week Body Makeover diet. You can use other workouts as your Fat Burning cardio, however, not all workouts burn the fat you need to burn.
A Little about Tae Bo
Tae Bo is an exercise routine created by karate champion Billy Blanks. Tae Bo combines music with a very specific workout routine. Tae Bo has become quite popular over the years with its home video workout, but in regards to the 6 Week Body Makeover, it doesn’t burn the fat you need. Tae Bo is a great cardio workout but it burns sugar rather than fat. As effective as Tae Bo is for some people, if you want to follow the 6 Week Body Makeover diet and eat more and work out less, Tae Bo is not a viable solution for your Fat Burning Cardio.
Tae Bo and Other Exercise Routines that Don’t Count as Your Fat Burning Cardio
Some workouts, as effective as they may be, just don’t work with the 6 Week Body Makeover diet. Since the Body Makeover diet combines diet and exercise to help you reach your goals, you need to make sure you follow your diet and Body Sculpting routine closely. This also counts for your Fat Burning Cardio routine. Tae Bo won’t work as your Fat Burning routine specifically because it burns sugars in your body rather than fat. However, Tae Bo isn’t the only routine that won’t work with the 6 Week Body Makeover diet. Other workouts that are not recommended as your Fat-Burning cardio are Stair Climbing, Stair Step machines and Climbing machines, Elliptical and Rowing machines, Aerobic Dancing and Aerobic Step classes, Boxing, Kick Boxing and other martial arts, Circuit Training with weights or machines, and Power Cycling classes. For your Fat Burning Cardio, just stick with long, slow, rhythmic workouts, like paced walking, slow jogging, or stationary bicycling.
If not Tae Bo, Then What?
Since Tae Bo won’t work with the 6 Week Body Makeover, it’s important to know what counts as an Accelerated Fat Burning routine. Basically your Accelerated Fat Burning routine is a simple activity such as walking. However, the way you walk is what counts. You need to make sure your walk is brisk if you want it to count as a fat burning exercise. There is a specific way you need to walk to transform your leisurely stroll into a successful Accelerated Fat Burning routine. The section "Accelerated Fat Burning" in your 6 Week Body Makeover handbook will tell you everything you need to know about utilizing simple activity, such as walking, to considerably accelerate the fat burning process and reshape your body fast.
Tae Bo, although effective on its own, is not an exercise routine you can combine with the 6 Week Body Makeover diet to work as your Fat Burning routine. Your Fat Burning routine is very specific to the diet and needs to consist of exercises that strategically target fat rather than sugars in your body. For details, see your 6 Week Body Makeover diet handbook.
