[quote=Anonymous]Running has never helped me lose much weight. Too much cardio just makes me more hungry. I find that lifting heavy weights and interval training works better for me. Weight training also helps build muscle and increases your metabolism more than cardio. After weight training you will continue to burn calories after the workout where with cardio the minute you stop doing it you stop burning calories. I also believe that running is something you should do when you are in shape, not to get into shape. Out of shape people running are just increasing their chances of getting injured and further derailing their fitness. Obviously different things work for different people but this has been my experience. I will also add that I am a firm believer that weight loss is 80% Diet and 20% exercise. It won't matter what you do for exercise if you eat too much. It is nearly impossible to out exercise a poor diet. [/quote]
