Right now I am in a cutting phase. I have restricted calories and carbs and raised my protein. I think I have the whole deit thing in check. I have a cardio question. What's the best way to do cardio? How can you burn the most fat and the least amount of protein (muscle)? I have been doing the x-trainer for 30 minutes 4 times a week. I just do the fat burn program that the machine has. I try and keep my heart rate somewhere around 128-130. Any suggestions?

In regard to"burn the most fat in the morning" all I can say that it was not proven by any scientific researches that this theory hold water. You can lose as much fat in the evening too....As far as cardio I usually do my run on my non- lifting days, 3 times a week..

Interval training in my opinion is the best way to lose bodyfat and keep muscle. Run for two minutes, walk for one, run for two, walk for one etc.....I don't do much more than 20 minutes, 30min. tops. I think one of the best ways to lean out as well if you don't want to use cardio equipment is to run stairs. Go to a park that has bleachers and run the bleachers. You'll be a lean, mean, machine!
