Alwyn Cosgrove’s Real World Fat Loss Manual points out that…
* A 2004 diet study that shows a simple change can increase dietary compliance and fat loss by 96% — (and it’s not “eat less”!)
* A 1998 study that showed that the addition of 45 minutes of hard aerobic training, 5 times a week for twelve weeks – had no effect on fat loss
* A study from 1994 showed an interval training method that actually reduced body fat (skinfold measurements) nine times more than traditional cardio training — despite taking less time, and actually burning fewer calories per session
* A 1999 study showed that the addition of a specific resistance training program increased fat loss by 35% over diet plus aerobic training
* That same study also showed that 3 aerobic sessions of up to 50 mins, for 12 weeks (36 sessions) only increased fat loss by one pound over dieting alone
* A 2002 study used an Afterburn-type approach to training – and showed an elevation of metabolism for 38 hours post workout.
