If your a beginner and start cardio 1 1/2 hr /day at 80 % ur max heart rate?

will u take out the chance to gradually increase as your body hits plateaus?If your a beginner and start cardio 1 1/2 hr /day at 80 % ur max heart rate?
90 minutes a day at 80% MHR for someone who just started is detremental.


your nervous system won't handle it. your cardiovascular system can't handle it. and your endurance can't handle it. your body will shut down, burn muscle at a fast rate, and you will host many problems including weaker immune system, excess cortisol secretion, lethargy, loss of appetite, insomnia... etc.





a secondary issue is hitting a plataeu... what will you do then? 3 hours per day??? start gradually. why not start out with a 250 caloric deficit from diet, and a 300 caloric deficit from exercise every other day? this way you will lose 1-2 lbs per week. and whenever you plataeu, just increase exercise slightly.





hope that helps
