Hey everyone. We know the last thing you need is another fitness podcast to catch you up on the newest trends,

fad diets, fictitious fat, blasting workouts that will be dead in the coming decade. I'm Mariana,

and I'm here with Tony today, and we made the fitness stuff podcast to make exercise and nutrition

science practical. Our goal is to expose misinformation in the industry by providing only evidence-based

education where today we are covering the famous 12-330 workout. Tony, how are we today?

I'm super duper. I woke up. I didn't choose violence. Okay. I didn't choose violence. Now, woke up on the right side of the bed. We're feeling good. Feeling good. I'm excited about this one. So I sent over Tony a little TikTok video to react to. He hasn't seen it yet. So he's going to pull that up and watch it. I can pull it right here? Yep, pull it up. All right, let's do it. She's walking

backwards. I will never stop doing the 12.3.3. A. Benefits. Get a BS. Lifted booty. Lose body fat.

Get tanned. Get A. B.S. Okay. So let me recap what I saw. So I saw one, she's not, she starts backwards, but 12.3.30. I know what this is just from being on TikTok a little bit, but she says the preferred benefits. Let's go over those one more time. The benefits are get ABS. So get abs. Just get them. Because we don't have them right now. They're just not a part of them yet. You get a BS. So get abs. Just get them because we don't have them right now. They're just not a part of them yet.

You get a lifted booty. I'd pay for that. Lose body fat and get all from the 12.330 workout, which if you're unfamiliar with the 12.30 workout, it is where you turn the treadmill up to a,

correct me if I'm wrong, 12% incline, walk at three miles per hour for 30 minutes. That's where the 12 to 3 of the 30 come from. Yeah. Okay. And it can do all that. That seems interesting. Okay. So I think you and have talked about this one a lot. We've talked about this a lot. What do you think about it? Oh, so right out the gate, this is not at all either of us bashing on walking because walking is a great low intensity exercise. It's not a daunting workout if the gym is kind of intimidating. It's easy to adhere to. And if you do this every single

day, your health will improve. It is great for your cardiovascular health. The claims that come

along with it is where I know I see a huge problem with it and a lot of it just taps into a lack, like looking at

this is, this is it. This is the answer and avoiding so many other factors. So I'd love you to go

in a bit more on what this is ignoring. That is essential for getting for, I mean, not everyone can even get apps, but that's a whole genetic thing.

But like for these outcomes to happen, what is what is she not talking about?

Okay.

Completely agree with you on the first part.

12.3.30, we, we want you to do.

We want you to do because it's incredible, but we just want you to

understand what's actually happening when you're doing it. We want you to understand what's good

about it. It's a great workout. It's incredible. And there are reasons why it's incredible,

but those are not the reasons. It doesn't hold any magic properties. It's not a silver bullet that can tone you, get you abs, lift your booty, jump start fat loss. And the main thing here is, and if you hear people try and explain it, the argument on the side for the 12-330 workout is it puts you in a quote unquote fat burning zone. And the more time these people claim that you spend in the fat burning zone, the more fat you lose. And I know we've jumped on these words before, because communications,
