If someone’s primary goal is fat loss is it truly better to stay in zone 2 cardio even though I don’t seem to burn as many calories in a given time? Are you burning more fat per time interval or per calorie compared with higher zones? I like the runners high I get when running at speeds that put my heart rate into zone 3 and 4 but am I sacrificing my fat loss potential? According to my Apple Watch I am burning way more calories when I increase my speed and HR in higher intensity workouts.

Just remember 80% of losing weight is your diet
20% to exercise, you’re never gonna out exercise fat gain
