Thread: What is Best Exercise to loose fat FAST!!!

Hi June!

Glad you are back on track! I would start building muscles now instead of waiting later since muscle burns more cals than fat and would rev up your metabolism. That and clean eating..

Yep, plus if your looking to strip fat fast it is almost totally inevitable that you'll loose a good amount of muscle with it, especially if you plan to drop working out with weights (if thats what you were thinking).

I'd run in the mornings before eating anything, run run run and run hard, but I'd bet you'd lose some meat that way, possibly even alot.

you might want to try out Charles Poliquins German Body Comp routine. Its a program geared mainly towards fat loss w/ minimal muscle loss and possibly even some muscle gain. It's in his book, "Manly Weight Loss", and there are resources on a few sites on the internet. If you need more info let me know. Just a warning, these workouts are HARD.

Obviously cardio is going to burn the most calories, but your diet is going to be the key to losing fat.

Let's see your new diet plan! (you do have one, right?)

Well. kinda. I know what I should and shouldn't eat for examle the last few days, I have 2 egg whites with one whole egg for breakfast with 1 carb either a low fat tortilla of a pita bread.
AM lunch: turkey sandwich on wheat. or plain oatmeal and I mean plain, it sucks!!!
Mid lunch: varies a bit with speghetti, tuna helper tetrazini or fat free refried beans and 2 tortillas.
Dinner same as lunch.

That is not what to eat to lose fat...too much processed carbs, and not enough protein or EFA's.

Check out this thread for some ideas on what to eat and what not to eat.

The Fat Loss Primer will also give you a good idea of what types of food to avoid.


Pete...I'd love your Poliquin links

The best exercise... hmmm... to lose fat.... hmmm would that be the constant writing of checks to your liposuction doctor?

http://www.testosterone.net/html/34jelly.html , summarizes it pretty well. can't find the other links right now but this should do. If anyone has anymore questions let me know. I have the notes from Poliquins seminar.

Thanks Pete!

2 tortillas is a huge amount of carbs.

You might consider jump rope too, that beats the snot out of me.

ellipticals are great workouts... i get a better workout on one of those than i do a treadmill

Anaerobic interval training would be the most efficient way to lose fat. Go to www.testosterone.net and do a search for it. Jeff Everson had a great interview with someone about it, but I doubt you will find that on the net.

PS You should do this on top of cardio and weights, generally doing each at least 3 days a week.
