You may not want to hear this, but he claims most people won't notice a huge difference in fat loss by choosing one type of exercise. 'Adherence and effort will determine a huge percentage of the fat loss pie,' says Galpin.

So, there’s no need to choose workouts that you hate to hit your weight goal. Working out has so many health benefits beyond weight loss. It makes sense that you're less likely to lace up for that jog if you detest running. The best exercises are the ones you’re most consistent with, Schoenfeld says. Nick West, M.D., a cardiologist and chief medical officer and divisional vice president of global medical affairs in the vascular business of the health care company Abbott. 'The World Health Organization has been recommending for some time that physical exercise of any sort, including light intensity, is better for general health than being sedentary,' says Dr. Just over half of American adults, or 53 percent, get enough aerobic physical activity, and only 23 percent meet the aerobic and muscle-strengthening activity guidelines, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). But, most people don’t get that much exercise. It’s recommended that adults need 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity a day, or 75 minutes of vigorous activity-or a combination of the two. Ultimately, there isn't just one 'right' exercise, and the reality is any kind of movement is great for your body and can help you achieve your weight-loss goals. 'Fat loss for most people is simply a product of work,' he says. However, the difference won't be significant for most people, says Brad Schoenfeld, Ph.D., C.S.C.S., professor of exercise science at Lehman College. You also continue to burn more calories every second of the day when you have more muscle. You burn more calories when you're heart rate is elevated, explains Galpin. Both arguments are actually true, according to Andy Galpin, Ph.D., C.S.C.S, N.S.C.A.-C.P.T., assistant professor at California State University, Fullerton.
