PUA Forum :: The single best exercise method to lose weight

I have worked as a personal trainer as well as having a degree in sport science so i can speak with some authority here.

Obviousely cardio is the surefire way of losing weight, but which kind? Bike's don't use as much energy as your body is supported and you're only using your legs. Rowing - you're using more of your body but you're still supported.

It will come as no surprise that RUNNING is the fastest way of burning calories as all the body is utilised and you are unsupported.

But what is the best kind of running? Over the centuries and milleniums, the human body has evolved and learned to use fat as fuel instead of carbs and protein when one is alternating intensities. The typical human does not maintain the same intensity when working, hunting, farming etc. It is always a stop start stop start intensity. So when we go running and we are running at the same speed or intensity for 30+ minutes, then the body is unable to burn as much fat as it is capable of doing.

So how do we apply this to running? Simple, i introduce INTERVAL TRAINING. The practice of running at different speeds or intensities throughout a given session. This is alot more fun too. How many times have you been for a jog and wanted to walk for a few minutes? Well this is perfectly fine and indeed advisable. Just make sure that you mix the walking in with some higher than normal intensities ie sprinting hell for leather.

I reccommend you give this a go...Plan you're route around your block etc. Start with a comfortable JOG. When you hit a lamp post SPRINT, next lamp post JOG, next lamp post WALK. If you wish you can walk for the space of 2 lamp posts as the sprinting can take it out of you, but you'll be killing to get back into the jog again. Give it a go and watch the fat burn from your body. Let me know how you get on.

Running - HITT Training = Your Answer!

I hate to disagree but I think there's one better: JUMP ROPE! There's a reason all the boxers use it. And martial artists. They are some of the fittest people around. You are definitely right about intensity though. I wish more people would listen. Although variety is the spice of life, so use both. Jump rope is more intensive (anaerobic) rather than running which is normally aerobic. Also, a tip: doing a mile run is 80-90% aerobic. So basically, do lots of mile runs rather than just 10 mile runs. And mix it up with 100, 200, 400, 800m runs (1600m is a mile).

Combine your interval training with some weight training and you're cooking with thermonuclear power

The best fat burner is HIIT skipping. Not HIIT sprints. Plus running is boring. Skipping is a cool skill & is fun. Especially when you start to throw in a few tricks. It improves your balance & co-ordination. You are using your upper and lower body, rather than mostly your legs when running. Also, it is not jarring on your ankles knees & back the way running is. Peace

you all have it wrong. what ya gotta do is get an ab belt and anything chuck noris endorses. that is the only sure fire way to become a lean, mean, cardio machine! in all seriousness: the easiest way to loose fat is your diet. plain and simple. you can run miles a day but if you dont eat right, you arent going to loose anything significant; long term speaking. tips so you dont have to work as hard. remember what your mother told you? work smarter, not harder. i realize the title is 'the single best exercise method to lose weight', but how about the top 8 best methods in general to loose body fat? 1. water, water, water. not only does water fill your belly up, but it is vital to you and is the only substance on earth that contains a true 0 calories. drink plenty of water, and as few other drinks as you can. no redbull, coffee, gatoraid, 'smart water', and if you cant do anything else, stay away from the devil in a bottle: soda. 2. eat more frequent, smaller meals. 5-6 small meals a day, specially if they have been preplanned will keep your metabolism going all throughout the day. your metabolism is the single biggest calorie burner in your body, by a long shot. running at max speed will put a dent in the calorie consumption that a highly active metabolism can. 3. do not eat late. stop eating 5 hours before bed. most experts recommend no food past 5:30 (or 6 if you go to bed later) for the average american. 4. eat a healthy big breakfast. this does not include a egg mcmuffin with cheese from mcdonalds, or 3 doughnuts from the gas station. your body only requires so many calories per day (it varies from person to person. for many it is right around 2,000) and every calorie over that you exceed will put excess body fat onto your frame 5. know what you are eating. read labels, keep a general number of how many calories youve taken in that day in your head. always guess high if you dont know the exact amount. try not to go over 2000. 6. fiber! is a gift that is rarely taken advantage of. fiber will help expel excess stored junk from your digestive tract. this will also help you digest food more efficiently because there is no backups. if a snow covered road is your current digestive tract, and food youve eaten is driving a 4wd truck, fiber is the snowplow that pushes all the snow out of the way and lets the truck drive freely and more efficiently. 7. stress kills. stress causes hunger. food is a way to satisfy your body, which is what it wants when under stress. eliminate all possible causes of stress, such as taking the city streets to and from work if the freeway is commonly jammed up. it may take a little longer, but your body will love you for cutting down that stress. 8. when your full... STOP eating. -self explanatory. thats tyler the huckers 8 easiest steps to keep the fat at bay.

I dropped my body fat from ~12% to 8.8% in less than 3 months. I did this eating the same way, and without any sort of powder/pill supplement. I did this by eliminating all "cardio"exercises, which I did every day of the week-and training on machines for about 10-15 minutes a week. Check it out here, videos included http://thedreamlounge.blogspot.com/2009 ... cular.html
