I bet you will say both- but is one more important?

It is not as simple as locking in to a "magic" zone and burning way more fat.

For cycling fitness- a balanced program that is polarized with all zones (at the right times and in the correct does works best).

For weight loss- the bottom line is that you need to eat less than you burn over a long period of time.
Congratulations! You just wrote the shortest, most effective weight loss book ever!

I hope it’s a best seller and makes The NY Times best sellers list.

One last piece of weight loss advice ( Like anyone asked for my advice )...it’s 80%/20% in terms of importance. Guess what is 80%. Eating less or exercise?
