What is the best workout routine to loose weight?!


Question: What is the best workout routine to loose weight.?
I have taken some anti-depressant pills in the past that made me gain about 30-40 extra lbs. What would be the best workout routine to loose the weight.? I of course prefer a combined weight lifting and cardio workout routine. Time is not really a factor now that it is close to winter but would like to loose probably 50lbs by next summer if possible.Health Question & Answer


Answers:
The best exercise to lose weight is: "the exercise you'll do," says Timothy Church, MD, MPH, PhD, a professor at Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Baton Rouge, La.
"The two things that stop people from losing weight with exercise are either boredom or injury," says physical therapist and strength and conditioning specialist Ben Quist, PhD, NSCA
The truth is that weight loss is about creating a calorie deficit -- in other words, burning more calories than you take in. So, they say, while running at an 8-minute-mile pace might be a great calorie burner, if you're not going to do it, it's not going to help you. Instead, start with something you can do, like walking or working out on an elliptical machine or exercise bike.
"Strength training itself will not lead to an appreciable amount of weight loss because it just doesn't burn enough calories," says Glenn Gaesser, PhD, FACSM, kinesiology professor and department head at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville.Health Question & Answer
