realgirlsliftheavyThis is a blog celebrating the strength in fitness and weightlifting, particularly in women. So many women have fears about the effects of weight lifting on their bodies, and they are missing an opportunity to be amazing.

I believe that the way Cosmo worded it is tricky. But also, an intense cardio sesh only requires 30 min. Any more can result in muscle loss

I completely agree with that! If the women are going in there to do cardio, it’s much more useful to spend 30 minutes doing HIIT or just hitting it hard than jogging or using the elliptical for an hour, which leaves you wrecked, burns a similar amount of calories, and like you said, starts to take away muscle.
