42m 33s(2007)

The Scientific and Practical Aspects of Exercise Metabolism presents a detailed review of the basic factors that determine whether an individual burns fat or carbohydrate when exercising.

In an easy-to-understand, straightforward manner, the video addresses the issues of when, how, and why individuals utilize fat or carbohydrates when exercising. 

Among the topics covered: 

  • What is the percentage of fat and carbohydrate (CHO) burned during an individual`s resting state
  • What occurs in the body as an individual goes from a resting state to all-out exercise in terms of fat and CHO utilization
  • What is the difference between the "percent of fat burned" and the "total amount of fat calories burned" in an aerobic exercise?
