But your cardio has to be high intensity cardio, not lower or moderate. You get into that fat burning zone quickly with high intensity cardio. P90x is nothing more than circuit training with someone high intensity.

When you start doing 30-40 minutes, regardless of the intensity, your glycogen levels become depleted and you start burning muscle.
