Strength Training: Nutritionally, it is best to weight train first. When you exercise, you first use carbohydrates for energy. Then, you use fat for energy. When you strength train, the preferred source of energy for your body is carbohydrates. When you do cardio, your preferred source of energy is fat (this is why they talk about burning fat when you do cardio). Further, it can take up to 29 minutes of cardio activity to burn your carbohydrate stores, meaning that if you start with a 30 minute cardio session, you have only burned carbs, and then burned fat for only one minute. Using up your carbohydrate stores with strength training allows you to burn more fat when you do your cardio workout, making your workout much more effective. Now, from a more practical standpoint, strength training before cardio is safer. You haven’t depleted yourself of all of your energy, allowing you to be more focused and aware of your form while strength training. This will help minimize risk of injury. Also, it is good practice to stretch your muscles in between your sets.

In your favor
When the doubts come, see them, feel them, laugh at them and let them go. You can do it and you know it.

Just a little positive action will get your confidence starting to roll. Go ahead and take that first small step.

A successful attitude is as close as your next thought. Imagine in detail what success means to you right now, and just as suddenly, you are on your way.

Smile at each challenge, because you see its value. Know that every setback makes the achievement more solidly yours.

Circumstances work in your favor when you think and work in your favor. Events unfold to support and fulfill your most sincere and intense expectations.

Whatever happens is another step in the right direction. For you will find a way to make it so.
