Holistic Fundamentals of Fat Loss and Weight Loss!


  1. Your overnight fasting depletes your muscles glycogen levels, liver glycogen and other energy reserves.
  2. Anyways, glycogen is the first energy source that ensures fueling your body for its demand to recover and regenerate from extra stress given to the body. 
  3. Body runs to stored fats for immediate need of fuel or energy when it shorts of glycogen storage in muscles, liver and other vital organs.
  4. The urgency and extent of fat metabolism or fat decomposition into fatty acids and glycerol for immediate need of fuel or energy depends upon the intensity of workout and its duration. 
  5. For overall weight loss, high intensity or anaerobic training seems suitable as it needs continuous flow of very high level of energy or fuel. It depletes overall glycogen first then cuts-off fats from the body reserve. 
  6. Moderate level of physical activity cuts-off about 70% from glycogen reserves and about 20% from fat storage. 
  7. Low intensity exercise mostly cuts-off glycogen reserves and negligibly cuts-off fat reserves. 
  8. Long endurance or duration exercise cuts-off uniform smaller quotas of reserved fats after shortage of glycogen reserve.  
  9. Doing cardio exercise in fasting state cuts-off prominent levels of fat: You should do fasting cardio early in the morning as overnight 8 hours sleep or fasting depletes almost all glycogen reserves in muscles, liver and other vital organs and blood glucose is also drawn-off to a greater extent. Due to Dawn Syndrome, your growth hormones and Adrenaline levels are high in the morning. Even Mitochondria refining and regeneration activities are on top in early in the morning. Your cortisol levels are also low in the morning which helps in intensifying your workout and helps in overall homeostasis. 
  10. For only fat loss, you have to slowly intensify your training, do have to increase your protein intake, decrease carbs intake, keep your fats intake to nice extent, and keep your maintenance level right not low! 
  11. For weight loss, you have to keep decreasing your overall calories by cutting carbs, eating low calorie diet, and slightly keep decreasing your maintenance level.  
  12. High Intensity Training activates your fast twitching muscles which demands continuous and high extent of energy. This depletes overall glycogen storage and increases fat metabolism. That means, stored fats are decomposed into fatty acids and glycogen. This released fatty acids in blood stream is used by muscles and vital organs for recovery, regeneration and overall homeostasis of the body.
