Thread: Excerises to lose weight?

Hi All,
I bought a treadmill last year and love doing cardio exercise while watching my favorite TV programs.
Cardio exercises like walking, running, jogging, swimming and cycling are great to lose weight.
Diet Pills

Protien shakes are good, be carefull of some of them though there are a few that contain alot of artificial products that can end up hurting your stamina and make you feel de-hydrated or depressed and low on energy. If your losing weight try avoiding the ones with creatine in them, creatine period actually. The Creatine with make your muscles hold water....this is a good thing, however because of all the excess water in your muscles you feel dehydrated and can't take on enough water to get rid of it so end up with headaches and nausea if your doing fitness work.
A great combination for weight loss/fitness is the PHD brand of fat loss whey protiens taken with Diarolyte (or something similar). The salts/sugars counteract the side effects of the creatine contained in some of the whey protiens. It helped me alot when getting out of a trough about 2 years ago.

Have a great post! Yeah you're right. Exercise will burn your fat to loss weight. And this is more effective if you will take 6-8 glass of water per day.

Right..!! The best way to loose the body fat is through daily exercise and yoga

High Intensity Swimming for just 20 mins, 2 normal lengths and then a sprint length do that ten times instead of this 40-60 lengths at snails pace. I would advise one other thing on weight loss also, Once you have got to a certain stage and conbining both cardio and weight training throw away the scales, Don't live your life judging your progress on what the scales tell you. Look on youtube on what 5lb of fat looks like compaired to 5lbs of muscle, Fat is 3 x larger than muscle so as your losing fat your building muscle but your weight may not differ much after a certain point maybe even increase it's then you start to look at your body shape more.

Plyometric and High intensity interval training exercise is great for core body, power and shredding calories. Anything that involves using your legs as well as your arms at the same time will raise your heart rate considerably. It's silly to think, but try and make small changes...like if your going walking, start swinging your arms for momentum (You may look a tit but you'll be a healthy tit ) ...
