I read somewhere that if you lift weights for over 45 minutes in a single weight lifting session that it will cause your body to store fat. The article I read states that you should warm up with abs for no more than 15 minutes. Then lift weights for 30 minutes and then do at least 45 minutes of cardio. It also says that the reason cardio plays a role at the end of your work out is that you burn all your sugar or glycogen levels while lifting weights and then when you start cardio you imediately burn fat from the get go, not after 20 minutes.
I am very curious to know if this is true as I teach step class at a local gym. we have different classes including a pump class which is working your entire body with weights for 60 minutes.
Thank you for all the fitness tips that we get from watching you.
