@@Daniel-pc2ov Think about for a second. If our ancestors lost fat by simply doing cardio we would be extinct long time ago.

@@Daniel-pc2ov because calories are energy. Fat is a storer of energy. Muscle consumes energy. So the more muscle you have, the more energy will be consumed meaning the less fat will be present since you are consuming it via muscle.
I really enjoy doing hiits on the tredmill with 20% incline tredmill. It feels awesome. That's how I fight depression, stress, laziness, sickness, alcohol cravings, boredom, nicotine addiction or any other kind of slump you can think of.
Paul, big fan, but you missed a couple very crucial things here. Firstly, this only applies to people who have been overweight for a while and have been very sedentary. Otherwise, their muscle mass may already be sufficient, which it is for a lot of overweight people. This will especially be the case (having actual muscle underneath) for men. Second, over training cardio does indeed do what you said, but overtraining weight lifting, strength/hypertrophy training will do it just as bad, with an added extra level of stress to your nervous system. You should have first and foremost emphasized a low carb diet, because that is without question going to make a bigger difference than any workout routine.
Dude, it's the combination that works best. Not overtraining. You do some cardio like walking/jogging 6km or something. Then you do some weight exercise. With controlled and proper diet. It can be good long term.
Paul you admit to surfing 2 hours every day!! You think that doesn’t qualify as cardio? Love your diet advice but seems like sometimes you just want things to fit your narrative
Surfing, the actual act of standing on the board and riding the wave is the only part that is cardio. The rest of it, paddling, swimming, controlling the board...that's all resistance training. It's why swimming is considered resistance training and not cardio. You can do lap sprints to do some cardio, but overall it is resistance training. Which is why swimming and surfing are so good as a way to build lean muscle and lose weight. They are also full body exercises.
This guy isn't trying to lose weight. And he definitely doesn't seem to be saying cardio is bad. But that it isn't the most efficient for someone on a weight loss journey.
Im a 36 f with hoshimotos. I try everyday to walk at least 40 min in my neighborhood. Some days i walk for a hour. I do try to do some resistance/weight excersises a few times a week, but cant do more often because my body isnt used to it yet. I try not to do a lot of that, but bodyweight resistance excersises are kinda my focus at present. In the past over 2 years ive lost over 100 pounds, and currently am jist under 40 poubds from a healthy weight for my size.

Yeah I feel stronger when I lift the 40lb dumbbells instead of the 50s too. If you lose weight but you do calisthenics then of course it’s easier and you feel stronger.
Excellent video Paul. Can you please do one on prolonged fasting like 3 day fasts. Does it help with fatty liver? Is it ok to do once a month ? Will it mess up metabolism? Muscle loss? Is it good or bad for organs and removal of visceral fat?
@@joerandom157 he doesn't say much about it other then it's not something that needs to be done daily for people who are metabolically healthy. I would like him to go into details and is there any scenario when it can be beneficial or not. There seems to be a lot of positive info about occasional prolonged fasting. Paul doesn't talk about any of this.
Fasting every 3 days is really good, make sure to break it with lean protein and not too much or else it will create too much bile and cause acid reflux. The fasting promotes IGF-1 and increased testosterone levels after a few days of refeeding .Give it a try. George St Pierre MMA champ. does 3 day fast every month.
Doc I don’t wanna ask a dumb question, but I ride my bicycle a lot… do you consider that “resistance” training? (arms supporting body while pedaling, stomach working to hold your body upright, and legs pedaling) ??
Calisthenics specifically is better. Lifting weights is not as good because you’ll inevitably try to lift heavier and damage your joints and tendons. You’ll get a fantastic workout by walking/hiking and calisthenics. Make sure you eat a whole food diet and not just meat too, because short term effects don’t solve long term problems.
It is good for your heart for sure, but if you train heavy instead, you will burn calories much more effectively. Less efford, building muscle ( this process actually burns so so soooo much calories, good shape, strong bone, boost your hormone
@@aarondesantiago3518 incorrect. Wasting time is overtraining volume in the gym. Thats a waste of time. Waste of time is marathon running. Rico did just fine
Yes weightlifting is more superior for BMR but building muscle is not a easy task. Maybe for people who take PEDs like the liver king sure it’s easy but for a natural unless you have elite genetics you will still have to do cardio if you don’t reduce your calories okay so let’s say your build 20 pounds of muscle which is roughly 10 kgs per pound is 8 calories so that’s an extra 80 calories okay well that isn’t a lot so you have two choices restrict calories which from experience feels horrible or eat what you are eating and burn 500 calories through exercise. If cardio sucks when it come the weight loss why would body builders even bother with cardio why would endurance athletes even touch the treadmill or exercise bike if cardio was that bad.
Rucking is a great exercise to build muscle and endurance. I find that is more better than running since it's low intensity and you are able to recover easier. Btw if you want to get into the military e.g. Special operations like I do you should prioritise rucking heavy a lot.
I’m 6ft weighed myself beginning of the month was at 200 pounds lost 20 pounds in a month from carnivore doing nothing but cardio running about 25 miles a week so yes you can lose weight
Moderate intensity circuit/interval non stop for at least an hour is how you loose weight using a combination of resistance and interval cardio between each of three sets. This traditional do a set and rest 5 minutes of one exercise is a joke for loosing weight. You want to keep your heart rate elevated. Look at cross fitters and you dont see any fat on them becsuse they follow the resistance/endurance program. Now building muscle thats a different story.
I have never understood this way of thinking. I hurt my back, ended up gaining almost 50.lbs. So I set my Stand Up phone app reminder to go off every 25 minutes. I would then jog on my mini trampoline for 3 minutes. Did that all day long. Nothing stressful. After four months I lost all my extra weight. …and all this a couple years before I even started carnivore. My diet before was maybe slightly better than average but I didnt cut anything back or change what I was eating. So yes, cardio does help you lose weight. Not sure why several carnivore gurus keep insisting on saying the opposite. Currently I walk three miles everyday and a few times a week I jog on my rebounder for 30 minutes a day. …oh, and I was not doing any resistance training during that time. I do now.
if you want to lose weight, doing cardio is basically the worst option that you can choose. Yes, it does work. Just like CICO works to a degree. But for optimal weight loss and health, lifting weights, doing resistance training is far superior to just going for a walk. The more muscle mass you can pack on the greater the amount of calories you burn around the clock. Cardio doesn't build muscle, it only builds endurance and it only affects your cardiovascular system. Weight training/resistance training builds muscle AND endurance AND taxes both your central nervous system and your cardiovascular system. This idea that running everyday is superior to weight lifting everyday has long since been debunked. Weight lifting and resistance training are the most efficient use of your training time.
@@charleshill1906 i didnt say running was superior. I was just stating that the idea that cardio doesnt help with weightloss is obvious BS. At that time, just light jogging on rebounder did wonders for me. And I didnt start resistance training again for quite awhile after I lost the weight. The weight stayed off, I felt fine. So my point was cardio was the only thing I did and my weightloss was obvious wonderful. Thanks.
@@pixelkat1819 Yeah, I get your point, but Saladino's was that resistance training is superior not that it doesn't work. Had you instead done weight lifting you'd have seen results quicker because the act of lifting weights taxes both your CNS and your cardiovascular system and builds muscle while cardio just affects your cardiovascular system and, if you do it too much, it can cause muscle loss. I used to run all the time when I was trying to get into the Marines back in the day. I was constantly running several miles every day on top of trying to do calisthenics and be able to do pullups. If I knew then what I know now I would have straight up stopped running because after a year of doing dead hangs and assists to no end I couldn't ever get a single pullup. It wasn't until I got into boot, after not running for about a month that I was able to crank out 5. The constant running every day was overtraining my body. Eating a calorically restricted diet and not understanding anything about nutrition and only focusing on calories caused massive setbacks in my training and was making me weaker. That month I took off before going to boot camp I ate whatever I wanted. But then back in boot camp it was back to running every day and doing calisthenics and eating in a huge caloric deficit. It wasn't until I tore the tendons off my ankle that I ended up in MRP and got off the caloric restriction and was actually able to weight train, I managed to get a 220 bench inside a month and up to 20 pullups. Cardio once or twice a week isn't going to hurt you. But every day, miles at a time will shred your lean muscle mass because you just don't need it.
@@nipples8776 yep. It was worth it. I sit in front of a computer for work so getting up every 25 minutes for a quick jog was very beneficial. Its way to easy to keep seated for hours at a time. Somedays that meant 45-60 minutes total…but stretched out over the day. I wasnt carnivore at that point and I didnt change my diet at all. Measured and weighed myself everyday or so and kept track on a wall calendar. The weight stayed off and eventually I started carnivore for the dental reasons. Actually lost an additional 10 .lbs…which I didnt like so I weightlift 6 days a week. I had dropped to 145 .lbs on carno but after a bit over two years I hover around 165 now…from the weight training.
I think you are overlooking the concept of zone 2 training. Tell people to slow down and move a lot. You can do it on a treadmill just slow it down. Lift heavy, sprint occasionally, & move a lot(zone 2). Look at the work by Iñigo San Millán on zone 2.
but we need cardio workouts for our heart, lung, and veins. But I get it, most men dont do cardio cuz they’re only wanting big muscles, that’s why men are easy to get heart attack
He’s migrated from grocery stores to the gym. I bet he leaves a puddle of sweat on the exercise machines. He probably also leaves weights on the floor after using them.
The carnivore diet in itself burns fat too quickly so why would I want to lose even more weight through exercise? I guess this works for people who still consume a lot of carbs.
Makes me nuts when people don’t tie the drawstrings on shorts. Liver King always had it untied also. Don’t know why it bothers me so much. Lol. Like watching one of your kids walk around with an untied shoe
No. Love ur content, but this is why we have to double check everything. Cardio is still good for weight loss. In fact, resistance training is overrated for weight loss
The people on the biggest loser weren’t burning 500 calories they were burning like 3000 calories and exercising until they vomited. Exercise won’t ruin your hormones though if you are 6% body fat taking PEDs and have the free testosterone of a 81 year old man then you are indeed ruining your hormones but that’s not what the average man at 15% body fat is doing
The biggest loser people gain their weight back because after they return home they don't have a controlled environment anymore. You need to change your habits. Resistance training is according to some new studies even more important for the health of your heart because muscles produces certain hormones etc etc. Losing weight is calorie in, calories out. I personally find it way easier to just burn 1000kcal than to restrict my eating for the same amount. Also cardio feels really good and helps dealing with stress. Nothing like the feeling after a good run.

I think you are overlooking the concept of zone 2 training. Tell people to slow down and move a lot. You can do it on a treadmill just slow it down. Lift heavy, sprint occasionally, & move a lot(zone 2). Look at the work by Iñigo San Millán on zone 2.
Btw, big fan of your work and adopted your diet. Just think this concept need refinement.
I've noticed I've lost fat weightlifting without adding cardio
Sound like liver king.
but we need cardio workouts for our heart, lung, and veins. But I get it, most men dont do cardio cuz they’re only wanting big muscles, that’s why men are easy to get heart attack
He’s migrated from grocery stores to the gym. I bet he leaves a puddle of sweat on the exercise machines. He probably also leaves weights on the floor after using them.
A sigma bate in others sigmas sweat. Just betas at the gym cry
I bet you probably go to the gym just to scroll tiktok for 2 hours
@@Sneedseednfeed 😂🤣
Ya ..
Alright Paul, let's see it, time for you to go on an animal-based bulk. Less surfing, more iron. Get them gains. Let's go.
DYEL?
That obviously completely missing cardio like boxing where you put on muscle for the most part while training
I have lost 50 pounds in 5 months dieting and lifting. 4 cardio sessions total.
Oh yeah and I eat mostly meat
Doing exactly what
The carnivore diet in itself burns fat too quickly so why would I want to lose even more weight through exercise? I guess this works for people who still consume a lot of carbs.
Yeah but who’s gonna carry the boats and the logs!
Coach Greg about to roast ya.
that guy is a clown. Makes Gilbert Gottfried actually pleasant to listen to.
@@charleshill1906 holy shit that's deep. i didn't know anyone could get more annoying!
Coach greg is def correct
@Joe Random not very deep at all, tons of people have said greg sounds like Gilbert gottfried for years
Makes me nuts when people don’t tie the drawstrings on shorts. Liver King always had it untied also.
Don’t know why it bothers me so much. Lol. Like watching one of your kids walk around with an untied shoe
How can I gain weight in a carnivore way?
I do Cardo to exercise my heart not lose weight
Slow, hard-ROM squatting to Momentary Muscle Failure (MMF) is the best exercise for your heart.
@@aliendroneservices6621 you're not gonna be squatting for 30 minutes in a row so no not really
@@libtarded Happily, your heart requires only a brief stimulus to improve.
@Alien Drone Services I'm pretty sure intense cardio is more effective
@@libtarded "Cardio" is low-intensity.
No. Love ur content, but this is why we have to double check everything. Cardio is still good for weight loss. In fact, resistance training is overrated for weight loss
This guy is literally giving the cheat codes out
Call Greg Doucett
He has loss some weight since liver king got exposed. 🤔😊
The people on the biggest loser weren’t burning 500 calories they were burning like 3000 calories and exercising until they vomited. Exercise won’t ruin your hormones though if you are 6% body fat taking PEDs and have the free testosterone of a 81 year old man then you are indeed ruining your hormones but that’s not what the average man at 15% body fat is doing
The biggest loser people gain their weight back because after they return home they don't have a controlled environment anymore. You need to change your habits.
Resistance training is according to some new studies even more important for the health of your heart because muscles produces certain hormones etc etc.
Losing weight is calorie in, calories out. I personally find it way easier to just burn 1000kcal than to restrict my eating for the same amount. Also cardio feels really good and helps dealing with stress. Nothing like the feeling after a good run.
Why would you want to lose weight?
i prefer fat muscle mass
"untitled video"
Technically, it's a titled video.
That is so innacurate.
According to the "fitness" industry.
PAUL LOOKS AWFUL!!
You kind of look like your withering away
You need to lift more seen more meat on a carnivore apron
I agree no offence with everything but except the food you mentioned. I don't wanna eat that.
You don't agree or you don't want to agree. Fruits are very hard to be contradictory, I do agree with you about organs though. I don't like organs.
@@lfabio.nI’m fine with fruits and meat but I’m not a fan of animal organs like testicles. But animal organs do have a lot of minerals so if you want to eat animal organs go ahead but I’ll pass.
@@ethanconner9157 I dont like to eat cooked organs either. Im still on animal based diet. went from overweight 85kg to 63kg in less than 3 months. How do I include organs? I buy them in freeze dried form in a gelatin capsule. its sustainable for me and it gives me results. its a matter of what solutions you can find.
@@lfabio.n Well stopped eating red meat when I was in my 20s because of allergy so I become Pescatarian. Didn't like meat after it went also Didn't like the thought of animal dying so became Vegetarian. Learned about Dairy and Eggs. Become Vegan recently
Steady state low intestine cardio is the best cardio for losing wieght but other forms aren't great for weight loss
Paul Saladino: doing more cardio slows your metabolism down. LOL
Yeah, if you over do cardio your body tries to hold on what ever it has, simple logic.
@@SlimThug78 My life. The more I run, the more I need to consume calories, i.e. higher metabolism.
@@porchturds8149 you aren't increasing your metabolism the cardio is burning calories which need to be replaced with more food or you would lose weight...
@@parkermccallum4151 who says im doing cardio.
yes my point is the more active, the higher the metabolism.
tell me more about my own body loser
@@h0llyn1gga who the hell over trains cardio? Everybody does bunk volume in the gym tho!
You are aging....
I agree with you on this definitely but vegetables and potatoes are good for you, sorry.
