RATING EXERCISES FOR FAT LOSS

Original caption

Rating exercise for fat loss… Running For someone carrying extra weight, running roughly doubles the impact through the knees and hips compared to walking. Good cardio, but the risk often outweighs the reward until the fitness base is there. Pilates It feels hard, so it feels like it should score higher. But it’s bodyweight or light resistance. Your body adapts fast, then there’s nowhere for it to go. Great for mobility. Weak tool for fat loss. Walking The only thing on this list with almost zero recovery cost. You can do it daily without eating into your training or sleep. Everything else needs recovery. Walking doesn’t. That’s what makes it stack with everything else. Bootcamp The exercises change every session, so there’s no way to track if you’re getting stronger. Without that, your body has no reason to keep adapting. You get fit for bootcamp. Not the same as changing your body composition. Weight training Muscle burns calories just existing, even asleep. More muscle means a higher resting metabolic rate, permanently. It’s also the best defence against the muscle loss that comes with age. Swimming Water supports your bodyweight, so the muscles aren’t fighting gravity. Brilliant for joint pain, but the strength built doesn’t transfer as directly to daily life. Pair it with weights and you get both.
