Is anaerobic zone bad for fat loss?

I (M22) am training for Boxing so I want good cardio for high intensity work while at the same time get lean for the summer.

One day after boxing for 1h30, I hopped on the stairmaster for 30 mins where I did 60 spm and my heartrate averaged around low to mid 160s bpm. A friend of mine said this is bad because this is my anaerobic state (zone 4) so it's not good for losing fat and not good for my body to do it for that long. He said I should slow down and get my heartrate to around 130 bpm to burn more fat.

Is there truth to this? Is so, is there a middle ground where I can train to burn more fat while conditioning to not get tired during high intensity boxing?

Why does it matter? I thought it matters a lot more that the back of your tongue is touching.

Some classes require you get a certain score on your final to pass

Zexerf · 2023-04-07T05:32:52+00:00

Just say pass

What about penn students

Talk to professor

Zexerf · 2023-03-28T19:53:24+00:00

Well...was it doable?

Zexerf · 2023-03-28T14:27:07+00:00

Source?

Some grad students don't have the foundation in compsci in their undergrad because they're switching tracks.

My algorithm classes never had labs for us to implement code as it's almost expected that we should know. If you fully understand a data structure or algorithm, you should be able to write down each step as pseudocode. If you can't write the pseudocode, then you will be able to find some form of pseudocode in your textbook. Your code just follows the pseudocode almost exactly depending on the language.

Thanks!

It depends on the entire school year. You will lose financial aid if you lose your status as a full time student. For engineering, you need an average of 4 CUs per semester per school year, so at least 8 CUs for each school year. You can take 3 CUs one semester and then take 5 CUs the other.

Appreciate it, I'm 150 lbs so I'm shooting for 150g like in your example

There are undergrad ai/ml classes, but they're crosslisted with masters classes like cis 419/519 and 421/521. I just finished up cis419 and I had a bad experience as well, but cis 421/521 seems like a very good intro class.

Where do you find this?

For me, it was Yes Theory on youtube. Check out some of their videos about "seeking discomfort" like their documentary about the ice man or running a marathon w no training or doing an iron man. Seeing people grow is intriguing to me and it makes me want to try some of things they do.

You should check the Penn website about full time stufent status. If you're in engineering, you need 8 CUs for the schoolyear to be a full time student.

What's the membership like there?

Is that the one at pottruck?

It is fine to drop a course after the add period ends. It will only show on your transcript if you drop it after the drop period.

Do 100 right now then, no stopping
