Use Aerobic
If the stress gland is stressed, you want to avoid intense exercise. To improve the stress gland, the correct exercise is calming and less stressful. This type of exercise will burn fat mostly during and slightly after the exercise.

The main benefit of light endurance-type exercise is that it is very gentle on the adrenals and will keep stress hormones to a minimum. However, aerobic exercise doesn’t burn fat 14 to 48 hours after exercise like the anaerobic system does.

Remember that this is the antiaging, fat-burning, lean-body-mass-producing hormone, which also helps prevent the breakdown of proteins like your bones, muscles, hair, skin and nails.

The third one is testosterone. This hormone is made by …

1) Intensity (the power behind the exercise) and difficulty
2) Frequency
3) Duration (total time of exercise)

Have you ever wondered why some healthy-looking people drop dead from a heart attack after exercise?
It’s never when they are exercising — it is when they stop and rest. It’s not the exercise that killed them, it’s the poor recovery time. Exercise is stress to the body, and a healthy body is supposed to adapt to stress and rebound or bounce back.

Dr. Berg states the main reason why the body accumulates fat (or potential energy) in the stomach has to do with the body’s survival mechanism reacting to stress.
This is how it works:
Under stress the body doesn’t …
