Right, nelix, I agree with your statement, but I believe it's a waste of money to buy fatburners for the purpose of burning fat when you're going to be consuming a weightgainer concurrently. Ideally once the fat has been mobilized, the fat burners upregulatory effect on the metabolism will oxidize the fat for use as energy but when calories are in excess , like using a weightgainer, I believe using a fat burner is just throwing money down the toilet. Fisha, my suggestion is this, if you're overweight, cut the calories back a bit (nothing too drastic just yet) and lose some weight through 2-3 cardio sessions a week plus 3 weight sessions a week. If you are not overweight but have just a tad bit more fat than you care for, go for the weightgainer and 3-5 heavy and hard weight sessions per week.........you gradually lose the fat and add more muscle at the same time (more than you would if doing the first suggestion). Hope this helps man ! Also, READ ALL YOU CAN about cardio, burning fat, building muscle, etc., knowledge is power when applied my friend ! And knowing is half the battle !
