Lift Weights

In terms of the fastest way to lose weight, people often focus on cardio for exercise and avoid lifting weights.

This is because people associate weight training with bodybuilding and worry that lifting weights will make them too big and too muscular. In reality, weight training will not turn you into a hulking bodybuilder at all.

Weight training will increase your lean muscle mass slightly, and because muscle mass requires more calories for maintenance than fat, the more muscle you build the faster your metabolism becomes.

When you lift weights, not only does the exercise itself burn calories, but as you build more muscle mass you’ll find that your metabolism increases so you’ll burn more calories in a rested state and lose body fat much faster than usual.
