How fast and how weight could I lose like this?

Suppose there was this 5'2 girl who weighed 160 pounds (13 years old), and she didn't eat much. Just mainly little things through out the day (around 500 calories). If she did this for 6 days a week and the 7th day would be a crash day (eat anything, no limit) but did not exercise, how much weight would she lose and in how long? Just curious so don't yell at me telling me this isn't healthy because I'm not actually going to do it.I'm not asking about better ways. I'm asking about this way and only this way. What would happen with the way I described?

Just try not to lose weight too fast because that can result in loose, saggy skin. You have to lose weight in a moderate way with eating right and exercising/building muscle.

I have a history of hypertension requiring medication, but i lost weight and no longer have hypertension?

does this disqualify me from joining the military, i know there are medical waivers for certain conditions but would i be automatically disqualified just because i have a history of high blood pressure even though i have lost weight and no longer have high blood pressure?

What is your blood pressure now, compared to when you got hypertension? what is your heart rate?You will mostly likely need a waiver, because of your history of hypertension.You will need to submit your medical records for review.Weather or not your waiver is given or approved is up to the waiver authority, the meps doctors have nothing to do with it.This is my opinion, i think you would have a chance at it, since your HBP is caused by being overweight, and not by some other underlying chronic condition.On the other hand, the military is cutting back, and they are reluctant to entertain waivers.

Other Answers:

You have a condition like weak blood and anemia but think when you eat a decent diet no more condition no more anemia; you just passed the military physical.

How to Lose Weight Really Fast in 3 Easy Steps

Recommended Answer:
You are just looking at a painful and drawn out way to empty your entire digestive tract.
The lemon detox/master cleanse diet is a calorie deficit program.
You will lose weight on this diet whether you are attempting weight loss or just trying to "cleanse". The average adult has eight meals in their digestive system. Five more than they should. By going on a deficit diet like this you can lose up to 10 pounds just by not eating. But it is only the weight of the food in your digestive system. Plus the weight of the lost glycogen stores, excess sodium and associated water. This can add up to 15-20 lbs depending on your build. The signal these starvation diets send the body is that there is no more food available. The body immediately stores any fat it can and begins to convert muscle and even organ tissue first for fuel instead of the stored fat. Sadly metabolism actually drops. And all the weight is replaced when you start eating again.
There is no build up of bad plaque, toxins, or sludge in a normal, reasonably healthy system.
If this was the case we would have people dying left and right from malnutrition since their small intestines couldn''t absorb nutrients.
The majority of the water from food and what we drink is reabsorbed through the colon, if our colons were clogged we would all be walking around looking like sponges right?
Detoxing is ridding the system - liver, kidneys, and intestines of toxins both internal and environmental. Our liver and kidneys aren''t clogged with toxins. Otherwise we would be dead. The liver does in fact get layered with fat if we become overweight.
We "cleanse and detox" naturally 24 hours a day through respiration, sweat, liver, and kidneys.
We can help by eating a healthy diet with minimal added sugar and salt. Lots of fresh fruit, vegetables, whole grain foods, beans, peas, and brown rice keep a system as healthy as it can be.
Minimal alcohol, caffeine, soda.
Read food labels. If you can''t pronounce it, don''t put it in your body.
A healthy high fiber diet works every time.
Increases the speed and efficiency of the digestive system and helps the body rid itself of both internal and environmental toxins.
Cleanses actually flush out the beneficial bacteria and enzymes in the digestive system.
Search "gut flora" to learn about the beneficial bacteria we need in our colon.
We have more beneficial bacteria in our digestive systems than all the cells in our bodies!
The digestive system is one of the largest contributors to our immune system.
They don''t tell you about the gas, cramping, and bloating you will experience when you start eating again and the body has to rebuild this bacteria population.
Spend your money in the produce department.
Good luck.

Can I lose 50 lbs in a year?

If I eat healthy, 1400 calories Monday-Saturday and walk and burn 300 calories those days. Then eat normal on Sunday. Not over eat, but just eat without dieting on Sunday. Since none of you know me, I''ll share my weight which is 210 lbs, and I''m a 16 yr old female. 5 foot 9. Can I lose 50 lbs by next February?

Walking to Lose Weight - Fitness Tips For Any Season

Recommended Answer:
You should eat healthy on your cheat day or you''re just going to fall back into bad habits. You have to keep up this way of eating (not the cal restriction but healthy eating) for the rest of your life if you want to keep the weight off. Tempting yourself with a cheat day where you eat unhealthy is just going sabotage your efforts. Instead learn to enjoy "treats" in moderation and how to fit them in with a 80-90% healthy diet. Then you can have them any time of the week but learn to limit yourself.

You should probably be eating a bit more. I eat 1400 cals and am losing weight but I''m a lot smaller than you. 5''2, starting weight 165 and current weight 115 lbs. 1400 is likely not enough for cals for your weight and height and you will lose too quickly and run risks of plateauing (weight loss stand offs). I lost 50 lbs in 7 months on that amount. You should be eating in a range of 1600-2000. Then reassess once you lose weight.

true hons yes
Yes Ma''am You Can : )
Because you''re 16, you should probably talk to your doctor about losing weight. She or he will know what would be the best way for you to lose weight! But from experience, Weight Watchers (YES Weight Watchers!) is extremely helpful. I''ve been on their program, and have lost 16 pounds in 4 months. Plus, exercising daily and drinking tons of water helps too. Good luck!
You can do it in half a year if you also add real workouts in. Walking is not a workout. Its something healthy, normal, active people do and you should aim between 3-5 every single day. I guess you could just focus on getting to 5 miles before you add in tougher workouts. After you are capable of that and have lost more weight, do a program like insanity. You will drop a ton of weight like that.

Indulging in a cheat day once a week is fine. It keeps your metabolism going. Just don''t go overboard on your ONE cheat day. Make sure its only a cheat meal and a cheat desert or something. Also control yourself to return back to your diet the rest of the 6 days of the week.

You will lose 50 or more lbs like this in less than a year.
It will be hard to lose 50 lbs in a year but if would be better to concentate on just losing 10 lbs at a time.

Holiday Weight Loss Tips - How to Lose Weight During the Holiday Season

Recommended Answer:
The key to weight loss is simple: burn more calories then you take in. That doesn''t mean you have to give up delicious food, it just means you have to work out more. A good way to do this is to drink more water (it flushes out all the toxins in your body) and walk around more.

How did you lose the weight!? How can I lose the weight!?

I am having hard time losing weight. I am 14 and want to wear a bikini for the summer. But I am like 160 pounds, 37 inches around my stomach, and a size XL in clothes. I am a vegetarian and only drink water. I don''t eat lunch I just have a snack. Like an yogurt. For dinner I have salad and fruit for breakfast. I try to run a mile every (other) day. Nothing is working I started this at the start of the year. I am trying to work out my abbes too. I also go to the gym. So what can I do? How did you lose the weight?

Why Losing Weight Fast is Bad!

Recommended Answer:
Well the first problem is your diet. You should eat at least six times a day. By not eating or eating too small portions of food too far from each other its causing your metabolism to slow down. To increase your metabolic rate you need to eat six small meals a day starting at about 7 am and eating your last meal at 8pm. Breakfast can be a low fat smoothie. followed later with a fruit as a snack ( since you are a vegetarian I would suggest eating a handfull of nuts). Lunch can be a slice of brown bread with low fat cheese spread. Make a shake for a snack between dinner and lunch. (if you can buy a weigh loss shake or a cereal bar one made for losing weight). For dinner eat steamed veggies and potato. And then for a snack at 8pm you get weight loss instant pudding. Remember that you need to consume protein the size of your palm and the thickness of your palm every day. So eat any other source of protein. Do exercise on an empty stomach, this will optimize the ammount of fat that will be burnt. Drink 2 glasses of water before every meal. Instead of just doing cardio exercises, try finishing all your exercises with a 30min cardio exercise (30mins is the minimum ammount of cardio you should be able to do). The only way you will get in shape for summer is if you suck it up and do more exercise. Eat healthy.

You can expect:
The first 4 weeks not to finish all your 6 meals. Since your body is used to being fed at irregular times.
You will crave foods like chocolate ect, because ypur body is used to taking in a large ammount of fat food that it will need more.
In the first for weeks you will also see a dramatic weight loss which will slowly decrease. (that is if you do exercise every day and not cheat)

Check out this site www.usn.co.za for the diet and exercise program . Click on the body make over link. You dont need to use the supplements, just do the exercises and eat right.

I used to weigh the same as you... Now I weigh 106. My secret you ask? Not eating... I have an eating disorder. However, DO NOT EVER STARVE YOURSELF TO LOSE WEIGHT! I learned that the hard way. Anyways, eating 3 small, healthy, meals a day actually increases your metabolism which makes weight loss easier. So don''t skip lunch! Bad idea. You''re working out, which is good. Remember to limit your calorie intake that is appropriate for you. (Around 2,000-2,5000 calories a day.) Stay hydrated! Good luck! :)
Here''s your problem. You are not eating enough. Your body will go into starvation mode if it senses it is not getting enough food. It will cling to the fat that you have and won''t let go until you eat adequate amounts of food. The proper way to eat and keep the metabolism going is to eat 6 times a day . Yes six. See when you wake up in the morning you have gone all night long without food. Your body has literally been fasting for 8 hours or however long you slept. During this time food breakdown is at its lowest cause the body doesn''t know when it might eat again. It needs food to get it started ( that''s why it''s called breakfast. You are literally breaking the fast). That''s why breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It jump starts your metabolism and says to your body alright lets start breaking down this food for energy. The biggest energy source is carbs. That''s why carbs are better to eat in the morning you''ll burn them all day long. The more frequently you eat during the day the more you are keeping your metabolism going and burning food for energy. You should eat three meals and three snacks a day. Make your food choices good though. Junk food is not good fuel for the body. Salads are ok but don''t provide you with enough nutrients. Lean protein, tuna, avocado and nuts are real good examples of food to eat. Running is great but you need to couple that with weight lifting. I cannot stress this enough. Lift weights. You will not get buff you will not look manly TRUST ME. You really have to work at that and dedicate your life to end up looking manly. Lifting weights provide curves to your body. Have you ever seen a skinny person that still looked sickly because they have no tone or curves? It''s bc they are not lifting. Trust me, Victoria secret models lift weights. It gives the curves and the beach body you are looking for. It worked for me. Listen to your body, eat healthy and exercise. Stop with the diets they will get you nowhere

How to Get Motivated to Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:
Without any equipment your diet is going to be more of a factor than anything. You need to cut the calories to below your maintenance intake to start burning fat. No matter how much you exercise, you will not be able to get to your goal measurements without cleaning up your diet. You have to create a deficit, but don''t overdo it or you will do more harm than good. Extreme dieting does not work in the long run. The calories you do consume should be split into a 40/40/20 ratio from protein/carbs/fat.

Since you have no equipment you wil need to focus on cardio and a body weight resistance program to ensure you don''t also lose muscle mass while dieting. It sounds like you are pretty overweight, so I am assuming you aren''t in very good shape. Look into a progressive running program like couch to 5k to help withy our cardio. Once you have completed this I would suggest doing some HIIT training to really burn the calories and strengthen your heart.

For your body weight resistance program you can start with the first exercise I list in each series and progress to the next as you can. I am not going to list the most advanced versions, but will take you through the intermediate versions. You really should look into getting a barbell and some weights or joining a gym for the most efficient program. If you want to stick with no equipment I would suggest "You are your own gym" or "Convict conditioning" for a defined progressive training routine.

Wall push-ups > Kneeling push-ups > Push-ups > Decline push-ups
Wall squats > Box squats > Squats > Jump squats
Walking lunges > Lunges > Reverse lunges
Kneeling planks > Planks > Side planks
Veritcal inverted rows > Horizontal inverted rows > Chin-ups.
Burpees!!!!

Does Zumba really work?

So i literally just started Zumba it was so much fun. Many people have told me that they lost a lot of weight. I was just wonder if it really does work? If so, how long would it take to lose 4 pants sizes?

Choose The Best Way To Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:
Absolutely,

To lose weight you need to do AEROBIC (cardio) exercises on nearly a daily basis. This will initiate oxidative phosphorylation (fat burn) within the cells. Get your heart rate around 100-140 bpm for 1-2 hrs. *walking/anaerobic doesn’t do much weight wise.
You also need to reduce intake of sugars, bad carbs and saturated fats. Drink water. Eat healthy. Eating way too little can cause weight retention. You CANNOT lose weight in one specific part of your body, but rather evenly across the body. Counting calories? Just keep ‘em moderate and do the aforementioned.
Some examples of aerobic exercises are running, zumba, dance, hard swimming, p90x, insanity, sports et cetera. Get your heart a pumpin’.
It will take dedication but the payoff is well worth it. Easy things are not worthwhile.
Take care!

It depends, that's how long it would take you to lose 4 pants sizes.

Help me improve on my diet plan to get toned/ripped?

I am 6ft4, 13 stone and 15% body fat. I would like to get down to 8-10% body fat, but i need a good diet plan.
I have a bit muscle, and i don't want to lose it. If someone could link me, or copy their own diet plan then it would be much appreciated.

My current diet plan looks like this:

Breakfast - Porridge
Snack - Protein Bar
Lunch - Tuna or chicken salad
Before gym - Banana & half a protein bar
After gym - Protein shake, and the other half of protein bar
Dinner - Chicken, brown rice and salad/veg
Evening - Glass of milk

Protein bars contain (21g protein, 38.2g carbs, 8.2g fat, 2.9g sat fats)

Should i make any adjustments to mine that could help me lose weight, and also build good muscle structure.

I basically want a body similar to this http://munfitnessblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/ryan-reynolds-after-blade-trinity-and-amityville-horror.jpg

Choose The Best Way To Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:
Personally what I would do is this:

Breakfast - Porridge (But use low-fat milk / skimmed milk)
Snack - Apple
Lunch - Tuna or chicken salad (stay away from mayonnaise, salad cream or any other fatty sauce)
Before gym - Banana & half a protein bar
After gym - Half a protein bar / or another apple
Dinner - Chicken, brown rice ad salad/veg
Evening - another fruit

Why so many fruits? Fruit has been proven to contain all the necessary components your body needs to losing weight and building muscle. Believe it or not, it has protein in it!

Cut out as much dairy foods as possible as they normally contain high levels of fat, also drink A LOT of water. Water helps promote weight loss and it helps process any nutrients/vitamins you consume around your body.

Hope this helps!

No enough nutritiousness- poor metabolism- poor and temporary weight loss.

I need to lose weight. Advice?

I really want to lose a little weight on my legs, they are slightly on the heavier side, my calves and thighs. I'm not fat, but it would feel great to lose just that little bit of extra weight. Can anyone tell me how to go about it? I've tried running on the treadmill, but I find it incredibly boring, and there's no one I can go out for a run with. Also, what should I eat? No crazy food please, I don't want rabbit food.

I'm 14

Best Exercise to Lose Weight For You

Recommanded Answer:
I'm so sorry that you have to read really rude posts by others.

It's great you're so concerned with your health at a young age! Way to go! As for toning up your legs, the best thing I've found is squats, leg lifts, stretching, water exercises that include jumping (stand in the shallow end, put on ankle weights and just keep moving. Also, you could put ankle weights on your ankles while you clean, do chores, or watch TV.

In highschool, I took 35 min for myself before bed. In these 35 min, I had my nightly routine. Brush my teeth, wash my face, then I'll spend 20 min doing random core workouts. And, my night work outs included incorporating the ankle weights any way I could. After the exercises, I would shower and get all the gross of the day off of me. After I showered I made sure to moisturize my skin, and drink at least 2 bottles of water before bed. I'd then make sure everything was ready for the next day, picked up my room, tied my hair loosely on top of my head with a scrunchi (to have extra body in my hair) and went to sleep

After only a week doing this, I saw myself losing inches everywhere! It was great. I never thought it would be that easy. The truth is, the hardest part of working out is starting. The thing to remember, if you've spent time improving your body, you'll see that everything else starts to look better too.

You'll have clear bright skin, healthy hair, you'll function better and probably see a rise in grades, you'll also experience a boost in self esteem. At your age, it's important to have something you do privately to improve yourself and let other people notice on their own. (That's how you'll really know when you e made progress). Don't forget, taking care of your physical body is only half of the requirements for a healthy life.

Good luck!

Cut off your leg
Just move. Swim, run, jog, swing, horse back ride, join a sport, find activities. Play with some little kids.. jump rope. ...

Don't worry to much abuot the food you're eating. I mean don't eat tons of carbs, and drink tons of soda. Try to make healthy choices when you can, but if you're moving you'll burn calories. If you're not into moving more. Switch to just plain water, no other drinks.
cut out the junk food and sodas...or if you can't do that just reduce quantity.
try weightlifting and alternate with different types of exercise. Listen to music or think about something that you need to do for the day when you exercise...
Diet matters the most when you are trying to lose weight! I mean you need to exercise but if you don't eat right (eat frequent smaller meals), then you won't accomplish much. ask that person who answered before saying exercise is the only thing that matters but later said that she gained it back! lol
Start jogging plus sit-ups, plus walk at night must
Well congrats on spelling lose right. You're already one step ahead of the other gerbil minds who want to lose on here.

Cut out meat , pasta , rice, NO simple carbs. Add grains, oatmeal etc.. Make all your meals vegetable based. I'm not going to go into the "rabbit food" comment. I'll let that slide since you're 14. Thin people do not eat "crazy" they eat healthily.
No sugar besides fruit. Eggs, whey protein. There are TONS of meal suggestions in the vegetarian section thats not "rabbit food" use the search bar ^^.
Running really makes your legs look better, after 2 months of running and healthy diet my legs looked way better than before, now they look even nicer. I ran 5 times a week, I started with 30 minutes and raised it to 50-60 minutes within a month. When you stick to it you really see results. Walking is really good for your legs too. If you don't want to run 5 times a week, you can replace 1-2 times with walking, but do it with fast speed and 60-90 minutes each time.

I ate 1000 calories a day, but that's not a lot, I recommend you eat 1200 if you want to count calories. If you don't want to, just try to make healthy choices and eat regularly. Breakfast, lunch, snack, dinner, snack. Try not to eat anything with sugar (except sometimes of course) because it can make you crave more sugar or food. You should eat all kinds of vegetables, fruits, berries, oatmeal, low fat yogurts, low fat cottage cheese, wholegrain rice/pasta instead of white, chicken breast/other lean meat/if you're a vegetarian/vegan eat soy protein or tofu, they're extremely healthy (low fat content and lots of protein). 100g of plain soy protein contains 45g of protein! You're 14, so if you don't want to cook for yourself that's fine.

Then Drink 2 liters of water a day. Green tea boosts up your metabolism -> you burn more calories.

Good luck! :)
Do you have any friends at school that might be interested in walking around the track or some area that is interesting? Just try to keep the pace up with legs & arms in sync. For aerobic action. As for food just cut back on foods high in fat or cooked in fat & watch your sugar intake, high fructose corn syrup is in drinks & juices: try to limit intake of these but drink filtered water or water processed by osmosis. Make fruit infusions with water, just cut up fruits you like & add them to water. Green tea & herbal teas are fun. Try to eat more fresh vegetables. I hope this information is helpful to you. Also yoga is a good healthy strengthening exercise which you can do indoors.
Lots of sports and activities help to strengthen and tone legs. Some
of these include running, swimming, cycling, blading, ice skating,
skiing, and jumping rope, just to name a few.
Specific resistance exercises can help strengthen and shape specific
muscles in the leg. You may wish to begin by doing exercises that use
your own body weight and require no special equipment. Here are a few:
Lunge
This exercise works the quadriceps (muscle of the front upper
thigh).
(1) Stand with your feet together, keeping your head up and looking
straight ahead.
(2) Take a long step forward with one foot, making sure this leg is
at a right angle (don't let your knee bend in front of your toes), and
bend the knee of your back leg until it's as close to the floor as
possible.
(3) Hold this position for a second or two and then slowly push back
to a standing position.
(4) Repeat with the alternate leg going forward.
(5) Be sure that your movements are slow and controlled.
(6) Build up your repetitions over time.
(7) To increase resistance, you may hold hand weights alongside your
body.
Heel raise
This exercise works your calf muscle (official term: gastrocnemius).
(1)Stand with the balls of your feet on a step -- hold onto a wall or
handrail for balance.
(2) Slowly rise up on your toes, pause for a second or two, and then
decline.
(3) Progress slowly -- don't overdo it at first.
(4) Increase repetitions as you become stronger.
Toe raise
This exercise for your shin is particularly useful if you are a
runner.
(1)Sit on a stool, bench, or chair with feet flat on the floor.
(2) Raise your toes toward the ceiling while keeping your heels on
the floor.
(3) Hold this position for a second or two and then slowly lower your
toes.
(4) Increase repetitions as you become stronger.

Squat
This works the hamstrings, located in the back of your upper thighs.
This exercise is difficult for beginners. It is best to do this in
front of a mirror to check your form.
(1)Position your feet shoulder width apart, with your hands on your
hips or the front of your thighs.
(2) Slowly lower your body until you're in a "sitting" position. Your
front thighs should be parallel with the floor. You may also feel
muscle contraction in your rear end (you're working these muscles as
well!).
(3) Hold this position for a second or two and then slowly stand up
straight.
(4) Increase repetitions as you become stronger.
(5) With increasing strength, you may also wish to add resistance by
using a barbell, held behind your neck, that's resting on your upper
back.
Lying side lift
To work the outside muscle of your leg called the abductors:
(1)Lying on your side, slowly lift your top leg as high as you can
while keeping it straight, and then gradually lower it.
(2) Repeat as many times as comfortable.
(3) Lie on your opposite side to work the other leg in the same
manner.
To work the inner thigh muscle (adductor):
(1)Lie on your side, crossing and slightly bending your top leg over
your bottom one. Be sure not to let your hips roll back -- stay
exactly on your side.
(2) Slowly lift your bottom leg as high as you can and then lower it
gradually.
(3) Do this as many times as possible (without extreme pain).
(4) Repeat with your other leg.
(5) Some people like to use ankle weights for these exercises as they
become stronger.
If you have access to a gym, you may wish to use machines to
accomplish the same exercises. Particularly useful ones are the leg
extension (for quadriceps) and leg curl (for hamstrings). A seated leg
press is also beneficial for quads and gluteal muscles. If you use
weights, don't increase the load too quickly because you may injure
joints and connective tissue.
One other thing that some people don't realize is that leg exercises
like squats and the stiff leg deadlift, or any other leg exercise for
that matter, will only help build muscle and increase strength in your
legs. Leg exercises DO NOT target any of the fat that is specifically
located on your legs. If there is any fat, muscle will be built
underneath this fat. The ONLY way to lose fat from ANY part of the
body is through either a proper diet, cardio or a combination of both.
I ran ot of space, answering you about exercising. Please, ask about food separately.
Since you are so young this will be a good time for you to learn how to keep your weight in check through exercise and physical activity as well as eating the right foods. Please don't let the word exercise make you scared or skeptical. That would be the state of mind of a lazy person. And lazy people who have physical weight issues and more than likely keep having these issues.

Is 30 minutes twice a day on the elliptical too much

I just bought a precor 5.31 and want to lose 60 lbs. Is 30 minutes twice a day too much? How fast will I lose if I'm eating low carb and doing this?

Lose Weight, No Sweat!

Recommanded Answer:
It's too much. Too much cardio is bad for you. It just burns off your muscle tissue. The key to losing weight is cutting calories. Start with 1500 cals a day, track your cals on fitday.com Do cardio 3 days a week and pump iron three days a week. The easiest program to follow is the Body for Life Program by Bill Phillips. He recommends 20 minutes of cardio x a week but 30 is okay once a day. If the lifting is too much just cut it down to what you can comfortable handle. Figure on losing 1-2 lbs a week, that's doing good, if you lose more, you're just burning off muscle which you don't want to do.

No, that isn't too much. You do need to rest at least one day per week though.

Its hard to answer this: How hard are you pushing? Whats your weight/height? Machines usually have a number of calories burnt on display to give you a rough idea.
i would say if you feel like your nights rest is reviving you than no. if you are feeling like you have less stamina in general, than maybe. if you are over 250lbs i would say you should take it slow though. i have the opinion that it is very stressful on the body for people around 300lbs to be doing very much all at once. think of it as a bell curve graph, in other words, the more weight you loose, the more exercise you should be able to do safely. at first though, the circulatory system really strains. but no, if you are at a lower weight, i would not worry.
Prob not, unless youre pushing yourself super hard!
Its hard to tell how fast youll lose weight without knowing your stats, calorie intake and approx number of calories burned through exercise
No that is fine to do. You just have to make sure that you also consume enough food with carbs so you can have energy for when you work out. Proteins are also good to have, but i usually do that after my workouts. AND HYDRATE :D

How long cardio to lose fat but not muscle?

I've been weight lifting for over 4 years now, and I'm definitely making alot of gains, but I still don't really know about cardio... I never do cardio, and I'd like to start doing it. I just want to know how long sessions of cardio should I do to burn fat, so I could get and stay lean.. but I don't want to lose any muscle. I don't really want to lose weight, I just want to burn all this little fat around me (NOT MUSCLE)

Six Simple Ways For You To Lose Weight

Recommanded Answer:
Its not about how long you do, it is more important the type you do.

Doing cardio can actually help with muscle growth if you do it right. You do not want to be going for an hour cycle or go jogging. You want to be doing extremely high intensity cardio in bursts.

This will achieve everything long easy pace cardio will do however it can increase testosterone and hgh. As it should increase these two, it will probably out way the downsides cardio does to muscle growth.

Sprint as far as you can go ( probably only about a minute ) then walk until you are ready to go again. Keep doing it for as long as you want.

Its very hard to lose muslce with cardio
Cardio will not burn muscle unless you go to the extreme and run a marathon every day.
The reason why some people lose muscle when doing heaps of cardio is because they are't compensating for the calories burned during the exercise. If you eat enough calories to compensate for the cardio, you won't lose anything.

How to Lose Weight very FAST?

I know if I exercise and stop eating fats I will lose weight. But is that healthy?

Fastest Way to Lose Weight

Recommanded Answer:
Don't stop eating all fats as your body needs it. Basically what fat does is acts as insulation and storage. If you want to lose weight, realize that your body won't want to give up it's storehouses and insulation. The fastest way to lose weight is probably to run. (Sprint intervals are probably best but distance is good too.) When you run, however, your body will first go after your muscle, especially if you run distance. To counter this, also build your muscles with weights/body weight training. Make sure you have plenty of water! Also, eating healthily will help give your body the nutrients it needs to work well.

no you just need to eat normally and exercise you just need to stop eating food that we dont need in our body and drink allot of water throught the day
Of course it's healthy. Just don't eat BAD fats- like junk food. Good fats are needed, such as the ones found in avocados Stick to a 1500 calorie diet and get in an hour of cardio a day. You'll lose weight fast if you can commit!
