K so heres a question. I finally got around to re-joining a gym since I moved. Say I’m on an eliptical and I go pretty hard for 20 minutes and burn 300 calories. Is it better to go slower for 40 minutes while maintaining my target heart rate even though I may burn less calories assuming I’m trying to burn fat? Thanks

the best heartrate to burn fat is sorta the equivalent of a powerwalk or slow jog. if you work out harder your heart rate is up higher, which is better for cardio, but to burn the max amount of fat you need a slightly lower one…
