To get rid of fat you need a calorie deficit. So you need to burn more calories than you consume. Exercising and dieting are the two methods how a calorie deficit can be achieved. It is always better to burn more calories with exercise than it is to cut calories with strict diets. There are so many different cardio exercises that can be done and it is important to find the right one.
Running or Jogging
Running and jogging are excellent ways to burn extra calories. You also do not need any special equipment for it and you can do it outdoors and enjoy the fresh air. It also depends where you live and what the climate is like. Running is not recommended for beginners that much because it may be a little too intense. Running is also not advisable for those who are extremely overweight and have orthopedic injuries. Running tends to have a reducing effect on the entire body, including on muscle size. So if you want to keep your muscle the running may not be the best choice.
Walking
If you are just a beginner and have been sedentary for a long time then walking is a great way to start your fat loss. Walking is also suitable for overweight, older and pregnant folks. Doing a 30-60 minute walk is very good. But the main problem with walking is that it is not a good fat burner. In order to burn a lot of calories you have to push yourself very hard. By the way, shopping for a few hours is no proper workout.
Bicycle
Bicycling is suitable for everyone and it’s a no-impact activity so the potential for injury is low. You can also choose a certain program that is suitable for you. Most bicycles offer a dozen levels of difficulty and
they even have built-in heart rate monitors. The fat burning potential for bikes is moderate to high. If you want to burn a lot of calories with the bicycle, then pedal as hard as you can.
Treadmill
Running on a treadmill has some advantages and disadvantages compared to running outdoors. Running on a treadmill can become boring and it is a lot better to run in fresh air, than in a sweaty gym. But treadmills offer continuous feedback on the electronic consoles including such features as time, speed, distance and even heart rate. For example you can choose an incline and running or walking up a hill is an excellent fat burner. You can still do your workout on a treadmill no matter what the weather is.
Rowing machine
Rowing is regarded as the best overall exercise of all time. It works all the major muscle groups in the body, including the legs, buttocks, back, abdominals and arms. Rowing is a safe, impact-free activity. Rowing is also a superb aerobic workout and an excellent fat-burner. Because it involves the entire body, rowing burns more calories than almost any other type of aerobic exercise. But if anyone has tried rowing then he/she would know it is very hard. Many people can’t maintain a long enough workout on the rower to achieve maximum fat burning. There is a way how you can avoid this. For example you can start with bicycling for 10 minutes, then use the treadmill for 10 minutes and then use the rowing machine for 10-15 minutes.
These were only a few examples and it is good to do all kind of cardio exercises to avoid adaption. And doing the same stuff all the time is just boring. If you are a beginner then start slowly and with the easier exercises like walking.
