If 50 is the new 40, and 40 is the new 30, then simple math should tell you: Dumbbells are the new running shoes.

Well, maybe that pattern doesn't exactly add up, but the long, boring, two-hour treadmill sessions are dead. They don't work now, and they never did.

Running Shoes

Burning fat and enhancing your body blend (lean muscle vs. Body fat) is best achieved straight through short intense workouts. High Intensity Interval Training is the most beloved form, and population are now beginning to realize, reluctantly, that just exercising longer isn't necessarily exercising great or smarter.

So, now, can we get those same population to take it one step further, by convincing them that they can well gain cardiovascular benefits without ever going near an practice bike, treadmill, elliptical machine, or any other original piece of "going nowhere" equipment?

Scientists performed a study, published in Cell Metabolism, that showed weight training can burn fat with the best of them.

They fed two groups of mice the same high-fat, carbo-loaded diets, to mimic the poor choices of "fast food America."

One group was engineered to have the lean muscle tissue that would be gained straight through resistance training, while the other mice were left all natural (at least they weren't in the Mitchell Report!).

The new and improved mice saw marked increases in their metabolic rates and well burned fat without any growth in corporeal activity, while the control group gained weight and suffered from liver problems and early signs of diabetes.

Even great news, the number of muscle added to the considerable mice was relatively small and could be well duplicated straight through moderate weight training in a short duration of time.

So, if you want to speed up your metabolism, burn fat while you sleep, and growth your lean muscle mass, then start lifting your treadmill instead of running on it.
