I will probably die

We did 50 box jumps instead of the snatches because he has not had enough experience with those yet. What a great workout! We are both pretty sore today 🙂 Very satisfying! Thanks for all the work you do to put up these videos!

Tough question James. There are many metabolic and hormonal benefits to doing Tabata which help you store glucose in the muscles rather than as fat. It may also help burn some existing fat stores, but I think this depends on your calorie consumption. A 500 rep workout will likely burn more calories (at the time and after), and it will also carry some benefits of resistance training. Both weight training and Tabata are anaerobic exercise, but weights will help build strength, stability, and improve functional performance, were as Tabata is a metabolic conditioning system and will not have these additional benefits.

In order to burn fat, you need to ensure that your muscle is protected by eating enough calories to maintain it, and include resistance training in your program (so your body knows you still need it). I would advise a different resistance training workout to one with 500 reps. This sort of challenge is fine once in a while, but high reps like that could set you up for injury if repeated too often. I am a fan of variety. Keep the body guessing by strength training, Met-Con, and cycling calories, by Intermittent Fasting or by just eating less on rest days.

Burning fat requires you to be in a slight calorie deficit. But you can prevent added fat gain by remaining at “normal” calorie intake (provided it’s not a huge surplus). When calories are at your recommended amount, then it will boil down to your training as to whether you gain more fat. After you build more lean muscle, you could possibly burn a little more fat at the same calorie intake.

I don’t think you can say it’s the type of workout you do to burn fat, if your diet is not in check. It’s hard to explain, because once I believed that a workout could be fat-burning, but now I realise, it can only be fat-burning if you are in a calorie deficit. There are factors too, but if you want significant fat loss, then you need to eat less than you burn.

Does this help?
