What is the quickest way to lose weight by exercising?

Alas, you will probably not lose weight by exercising without changing your diet unless you exercise at a dangerously high level (if you intend to do this, seek advice from a doctor first). However, exercise is important and will help to tone and sculpt your body. Exercise can make you lose inches. However, to maintain the level of exercise we tend to eat more. Also the exercise does not really burn too many more calories above basal levels (you burn quite a bit just sitting around). Exercise will convert your mass to muscle though, and for that, it is well worth it.

Don't target losing more than about 2 lbs per week. If you try to lose faster, your body will go into "starvation mode" and get very stingy about burning calories while at the same time very efficient about storing any calories that you do provide. And it will make you feel awful. \n\nThe most effective way to lose fat is aerobic exercise in the "moderate" fat-burning range, ideally first thing in the morning before you eat. When you wake your body is ready to burn fat and your levels of growth hormone are highest at that time. Later in the day it can take up to 30 minutes just to put your body into a fat-burning mode. \n\nAnother overlooked way to burn fat is by lifting weights. Skeletal muscle has very high caloric needs... almost twice that of adipose (fat) tissue. Put on a little muscle and you will burn calories all day even at rest. Be aware that skeletal muscle weighs more, so with this approach you may see your weight increasing while your body fat is melting away. Not realizing this often stresses folks who think they should be losing weight as a measure of fitness. Forget the scale, look in the mirror and you will be happy.\n\nTo lose a pound of fat, you need to eliminate about 3500 calories. You can do this by burning more with exercise or by modifying your diet to reduce intake. If you do a Google search on say, "swimming calories" you will quickly find a website with tables of calories burned for a given exercise. You can use such lists to estimate how many calories you are burning up with your routine.\n\nFor diet, keep a diary for a couple of weeks counting calories, grams of protein, and grams of fat intake. It is easy with online sources of nutritional information (type the name of the food and calories into the Google search engine) and packaging labels. That will let you quickly figure out where the fat is coming from in your diet. \n\nFat gives you 9 calories per gram. So take the number of grams of fat, multiply by 9, then calculate what percentage the fat calories are of your total daily calories. Restricting the calories from fat to about 20% of your total intake is ideal for a maintenance diet... that isn't overly restrictive. Of note, you need some fat in your diet. For instance, the body uses fat to produce hormones. Once you have a picture of how to modify your diet, you can drop the diary and just go back to it occasionally if you are wanting to tweek things further.\n\nThere is a subset of questions that goes further and asks about "How to get a six-pack?" The answer is the same. Six-packs are 20% abdominal exercise and 80% diet. There is one caveat... abdominal muscles will form in the position that you work them, so be certain to pull them tightly toward your spine while doing crunches, etc. Also, during most lifting, the "core is active" which means that you should be stabilizing with contracted abs then too. Fail to do this and the abs will form, but bulging outward and the result is not attractive.\n\nIf you are trying to build muscle as a way to lose fat, then you may need to increase total calories and specifically your protein intake. I target about 0.8 g of protein per pound of body weight each day when actively building. That is far more protein than most people need in their diets.\n\n\nAloha

Jogging and low fat diet.\n\nThe fastest way is via liposuction, but I wouldn't recommend it.\n\nAlways opt for natural solutions first!!

im not sure how "quickly" you mean. but if you are a male, eating about 1750 calories each day and adding exercise is a great way to lose lbs.\n\nfor breakfast eat things like eggs with yogurt and fruit or oatmeal, lunch can be a tuna sandwhich or ham and cheese on wheat bread..or a salad with chicke on top... dinner can be steak chicken or fish with a couple of veggies and a potato..and snacks can be nuts, energy bars, fruit, beef jerky, etc.\n\nIf you dont exercise at all...begin with 45 minutes of light cardio like walking or biking.  then bump it up to jogging and walking. \n\nmost people can easily lose 2 lbs a week on a normal diet but i have seen people lose 5 a week on this type of diet.  The most important parts are eating HEALTHY food (you can have as much fruit and veggies as you can eat!) and trying to exercise atleast 4 days a week.\n\ngoodluck!

Cut off your head!\n\nThe only good and safe way to lose weight is a reasonable diet and regular aerobic exercise.  Your goal should be to lose about 1 kg (2 pounds) a week and KEEP it off for the rest of your life.  Extreme weight loss in a short time will only set you up to gain it all back and more.  That's why they call it yo-yo dieting.

Losing weight help\n\nlose weight fastWe get weight by eating extra calories and incorrect amount of macronutrients. There are two ways by which we can lose weight.\n\n\n    * Eating less\n\n    * Exercising more\n\n\nYou know\n1 gram of protein = 4 calories\n1 gram of carbohydrates = 4 calories\n1 gram of fat = 9 calories\n1 pound of fat = 454 gram\nSo 1 pound of fat = 9*454 = 4086 calories\n\nNote: Our body fat contains around 3500 calories, as 10% of it is water.\nSo in order to lose a pound of fat (4086) in 2 weeks, we need to decrease calories consumption by 290 per day as 4096/14=290(approx)\n\n15 minute of good exercise will help you in losing around 100 calories. So in order to lose 1 pound of fat in two weeks, we need to exercise for around 45 minutes (290 calories) if we do not want to make any changing in our eating habit. So just take care of the amount of calories in the food you take. The best idea for losing weight will be by cutting down the junk food with exercising. So greatest way to lose weight is a mixture of diet and exercise as exercise builds muscles, and bigger muscles burn more fat.

I am an overweight adult, and let me tell you one very important thing.  There are NO such things as fast and easy ways to lose weight.  You have to work hard at it, and it is a constant struggle.  Try cutting out all sodas that are not diet, cut down or eliminate sweets, and eat reasonable portions. Increase your activity level.  These things are the only healthy way to lose weight.  Pills and fad diets don't work. I do hear that Weight Watchers is very highly recommended by many physicians, although I have not tried it yet. Good luck!

The easiest most healthiest way to lose weight fast is to go on a fruit and vegetable, salad, and soup diet. Most of these foods are considered negative calories, calories that get burned up in your digestive system. \n\nAlong with this, excercise!

A simple guide? Okay, here are the basics, but you probably already know them:\n\n1. You MUST burn more caloies than you consume daily. \n\n2. Drink only water. Soda dehydrates you.\n\n3. Find a physical activity you enjoy & do it at least 4 days per weak for 45 minutes or more at a time. You must get your heart rate up and work up a sweat. (Martial arts class does it for me!)\n\n4. If you exercise before you eat breakfast in the morning, you will lose weight a little faster.\n\n5. Muscle burns more calories than fat, so lifting weights will help.\n\n6. Walk as much as you can in addition to your exercise.....park farther away from the door, take the stairs instead of the elevator, walk to the store if you live close enough, ect.....\n\n7. Stay away from all things fried, sugary, or carbonated.  Eat as many vegetables as you wish.

Relax. \n\nWeight loss (like weight gain) is a slow and gradual process. One of the worst mistakes a dieter can do is to stop eating, or throw it all back up. When this happens, your body goes into a crisis mode and starts to store fat and burn muscle, leaving you still flabby with no muscles. \n\nThe best way to lose weight is through healthy eating and exercise. Weight loss is simple math, consume less calories than you burn and you will lose weight. \n\nBe patient and continue to push yourself physically. If your current regiment of exercising is becoming too easy, increase the distance when you jog, or increase the number of endurance exercises you do.

The fastest way to lose weight is diet and exercise. Plenty of exercise is fast. You need to go to the library and check out some books on nutrition. You don't want to do a harsh diet and hurt your body from nutrients and vitamins. Bake all your meat, nothing fried, green vegetables and plenty of water. Good luck

The quickest way isn't always the best way or the right way for you. Here are 3 different approaches that work:\n\n1) The quickest by far is surgery, of course. Liposuction is fast and works wonders- but actual stomach reductions (stapling, bypass etc) have not only been proven effective for weightloss but also in reducing the chances you'll develop adult onset diabetes.\n\n2) Next fastest is to eat a diet of 80% natural fats and 20% protein, in 5 small portions, with a target of 1000 calories a day. This is like eating a 2 oz bag of macadamia nuts, or 2 oz of egg salad or tuna salad as a complete meal, every meal. It works- and for any significant amount of weight it's better than starvation. More importantly the high fat content of the diet ensures that your body continues to produce the hormones you need to retain muscle tissue- so you lose fat pounds and not muscle pounds.\n\n3) Probably the best long term solution to lose weight and improve your health is to follow a light excercise routine several times per week, and to eat a diet that is high in fiber and has a low glycemic index (that is- eat foods that are low in processed sugar and grains, preferring when you eat carbohydrates to try whole grains and natural sugars).

Best way to lose weight is the longest way. U should lose ur weight slowly. \nU can do this cardio -also aerobic execises every day, its not unhealty. After 30 minutes cardio exercise, as physiological, ur body starts to burn fats! This is very important point. Also u must do this longer than 30 minutes. Optimum time is 45 minutes- 1,5 hours. \nBut u should also use a polar too, to see ur pulse per minute. For aerobic exercise -cardio- also to lose ur fat weight, your pulse per minute must be like in this formel: (220-ur age)x0.6 or 0.7. This is the approximate ideal pulse that u must have during exercise to lose ur fat weight. ( U dont run, u should jog ; this is different exercises!)\nU can find a lot of information about this in some exercise physiology books ( for example Fox's ; Katch etc.)\nGood luck... :))

Any amount of exercise will help you to lose weight. It also depends on how vigorous you play.  Are you really getting in to it?  or is it leasurely play?  Regardless the key is to balance your exercise with your food intake.  Meaning to lose weight one must burn some of the calories one takes in. Now if you take in 4,000 calories a day... you have alot of burning to do. So it's all about balance.  \n\nAnd the best advice is to lose weight gradually. The safe amount to lose weekly is 1 - 2 pounds a week - no more.  By doing quick lose you are damaging your body.  Good Luck.
