Anant Ambani’s Fitness Trainer Explains How to Lose Fat, Not Just Weight: ‘Cardio Only Burns Calories While You…’
Anant Ambani’s Trainer Explains Real Fat Loss vs Weight Loss | Vinod Channa’s Fitness Insights
Most people have experienced the cycle of gaining and losing weight — a pattern that can feel frustrating and confusing. One week your routine is perfect, and the next week life gets hectic and progress slips. While this fluctuation is often considered normal, many experts say it can affect the body in unexpected ways.
Celebrity fitness trainer Vinod Channa, known for guiding Anant Ambani and Nita Ambani through their fitness journeys, recently shared insights on how real fat loss happens and why focusing only on weight loss may not be enough. In his Instagram post from November 21, he breaks down the basic science behind fat reduction, muscle building and why balance is essential.
How Does Fat Loss Really Happen? Trainer Explains the Basics
According to Vinod Channa, the process behind fat loss is simpler than many believe.
“There’s nothing complicated or ‘rocket science’ about it,” he says while explaining how the body starts using stored fat for energy when placed under the right kind of physical stress.
As per his explanation:
- When people progressively increase weight training, the body builds more muscle.
- Muscles require more energy, which encourages the body to use stored fat.
- Cardio, he notes, burns calories only while it is being performed, whereas strength training can create a longer-lasting calorie-burning effect because it stimulates muscle growth.
This combination often makes individuals appear more toned and defined as fat levels reduce and muscle mass improves.
Why Balance Matters in Fat Loss
Channa emphasises that no single training approach works forever. The body adapts, and adjustments become necessary.
“If the body stops responding, we change the workout pattern — either increasing or decreasing intensity. We balance it,”
According to him, balance includes:
- Adjusting strength training when needed
- Modifying workout intensity if progress slows
- Paying close attention to nutrition
- Increasing or decreasing food intake based on how the body reacts
He adds that this approach works for many people because it considers the body’s changing responses over time.
However, he also notes that what he shares is based on his experience with clients — and individual responses can vary widely.
Nutrition: The Other Half of the Equation
Channa reiterates that exercise alone is not enough. Balanced nutrition, paired with the right training adjustments, forms the foundation of sustainable fat loss.
“This is science,” he says, adding that his methods are based on consistent observation of the body’s reactions.
