For weight loss purposes you should be going a lot longer than 30 minutes.

Most people will do cardio workouts to burn calories but we need to know is this the best way to loose weight and burn fat. Doing a 30 minute cardio workout is good but doing a 10 minute weight training workout is better.

Studies show that using a weight programs or intervals can burn fat 3 times as fast as doing a cardio workout. This is important because most of us are limited on time and we want to burn fat so we can loose weight but we want to do it in a short amount of time.

The major issue with counting calories on a treadmill is that it can be inaccurate and also if you burn 300 calories it depletes your body of energy and your body will want to eat, but the problem is that you can eat that 300+ in just a powerbar or jamba juice.

It is always getter to get a good workout with weights because they will not only bur fat, but they will get you tome as well. Also you want to make sure that you are eating the correct foods because if you work out then you go to the buffet after every workout then you are really defeating the purpose and you will have a harder time loosing the weight.

It is important to find a diet plan that works for you because everyone is different and each plan will have a different affect on a persons ability to loose weight. It is always important to look at a diet plan as a lifestyle change so it will make the plan much easier to follow

It totally depends on how much you weigh, what activity you're doing, and the intensity of the activity.

You can enter in how many minutes you've spent doing each activity in the boxes on that webpage. Then just submit it, and it will calculate how many calories you've burned.


I think you should burn about 400-500 calories per workout. It may take about an hour to burn this much off, unless you're doing a really intense aerobic workout.

for get the calories counting but mathematically their3500 cal,s a pound of fat so 3500x10= 35000 so if you want to lose 2. pounds a week then take 3500 x 2. = 7000 so you need to burn 1000 cal a day hard to do with exercises alone you could probably do a cleanse to get rid of the toxins in your body that give the appearance of fat you can get one at amstelncv.allinonehealth.com they have some free help and some videos
