    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.

  2. Step 2

    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.

  3. Step 3

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.
