I find cutting way more interesting as the definitions start surfacing. I don't think that you would need any fat burners until you've done EVERYTHING
possible to break a plateau like decreasing calorie intake, increasing HIIT intensity and eating the right food. IMO, only when everything has been done
and you still hit the wall, then only would a fat burner be necessary.
Concerning your previous post regarding when to do cardio, what I've gathered from some reading is this:
1) If you're bulking, then it would be advisable to separate your cardio and weightlifting sessions so as to minimize muscle loss.
2) If you're cutting, it would be better to perform cardio when the glycogen supply in your muscles are low (early in the morning and after your gym session)
3) Vince Del Monte said this:
When cutting, tempo is not necessary. You only need to lift some weights to remind your muscles to remain. The focus should be on cardio and diet.
However, I experienced quite a significant amount of fat loss even without cardio. Only relied on diet and weightlifting. The process would've been quicker with cardio I guess.
Not sure if I'm totally correct. Just wanna share what I think I know.
Cheers
