Cardio more than once a day

skeys Posts: 75 Joined: 2004/02/23	2004/02/23, 02:17 PM My main goal is to lose fat. I do not want to gain mass so the only thing i do after cardio is an ab worout. I am not seeing any results I workout 4-6 times a week and I have been for ouver a month now and I have not lost any weight. I changed my eating a little less sugar and fat intake. Will doing cardio more than once a day do anything for me? Or should I try something else. Please help.

I eat 3 good meals a day then usually 2 snacks between meals. My downfall is sweets. I do not count calories so I really don't know how many i am eating.

If you are not losing then this will be your maintenance calories and you will need to reduce them by about 300-500 a day. Try making your weightlifting sessions more like 45 mins and do your cardio on opposite days, or separate from the wieghts. The more muscle you have the more calories you will burn. and dont worry about putting on mass. It takes women years and dedication to do that. Also if yo are eating more than 50g of fat a day you should cut back on that too.
