Will This Workout Help Burn Fat And Calories?
So, I just started the Biggest Loser Workout yesterday. Today I did 20 minutes of high intensity workout + body sculpting (weights) + boot camp. Will I burn fat (15lbs) if I do this and eat healthy every day? Or should I just forget about this workout and go to the gym and run instead?
Thanks for all the comments!

This will work just fine. Save the gym membership for new clothes……yeah!
Annie.
If you can keep up the pace, you WILL lose weight. The key to ALL weight loss is this:
burn more calories than you consume
it’s that simple.
Adding a workout may help accelerate the process but you MAY be surprised to see that your weight loss isn’t as fantastic as you hope for at first because muscle weighs more than fat, so it all depends on your BMI (body mass index).
Don’t give up, keep up the hard work, CHANGE YOUR EATING HABITS and you will be successful.
Find a workout partner if possible. It’s harder to flake out on a workout if someone is waiting for you…..
that should help you to burn fat, but i think it is supposed to be 30 minutes of cardio[high intensity]
The most important parts to burning fat are gaining muscle and increasing your anaerobic threshold. Muscle speeds up your metabolism and your anaerobic threshold is simply doing cardio like walking (not running), swimming, jump rope, and things of that nature. This is good for FAT BURN specifically because these low intensity workouts at a long period of time use your fat cells as energy.
For example 30-45 min. walking is ideal for fat loss.
I don’t see a thing wrong with your new work out, give it a try for a few weeks and see how things go. Give it a few weeks and don’t give up before you have started, you can always go to the gym in a few weeks if you don’t see any change.
well i know in order to burn fat you must have a long workout, you could sprint for 20 min and wouldnt burn fat, but a jog for about 45 to an hour would burn fat, so i would just eat healthy and do long runs. long is the key not fast or tons of weight but long distance and slowly increase you jogging speed.
The running is the high intensity workout. But not all peopel can run. Those who are overweight can actually be encouraged to do other cardio since the stress on your joints (particularly the knees) is too much. You want to do the cardio and the weights to burn calories and build muscle, which burns more calories and burns them more efficiently.
Just keep it up. Make dietary changes to eat healthier and vary your workouts to find what you like and stick with it.
This sounds like an excellent workout! Question, though: is the TOTAL work out 20 minutes? Or just the high intensity workout? I think that the TOTAL thing should be more like 45-60 minutes, but maybe it is!
as long as you feel tired when you do the exercise, eat healthy, and stick to whatever you’re doing you should be alright. consistency is really the key. its also good to shake things up from time to time.
In order to lose weight and to keep it off you have to combine cardio, weight-training, and a healthy diet. I’m sure the biggest loser workout will work for you and that you will definitely lose weight. The gym would also work. You have to pick the one that you will actually stick with. That is the important part. If the gym is easy to get to (mine is across the street) then do that, but if you are reluctant and can often find reasons to not go to the gym, the do the biggest loser. Just stick to one and be honest with yourself!
If you really want to lose weight higher either a trainer or a nutritionist or both.
it will help but you have to increase weights as you go
