michael I'm calling BS on this. The best way to lose calories is to burn calories. Running is the best calorie burner out there. Combined with weight training will provide the best results. Remember that not all bodies are the same and different methods work for different people 6/29/2009
John D. This is a good article and I agree that weight training gets FAR too little credit with regards to fitness, building aerobic capacity, and such. The old fear of winding up looking like Ah-nuld keeps lots of people away from the bench. It is a valuable adjunct to dieting and cardio, and I wish more people would do it.

However there is one glaring point I must address, and it is the concept of added muscle tissue raising your metabolism by 50 calories (or more) per pound of muscle per day. Not true. It is a myth (one that has been repeated so many times that people seem to simply take it as gospel these days). The actual increase in metabolic rate from one pound of muscle is not significant enough to make a noticeable impact on fat loss.

For those who want references online - I can't post links here apparently but if you do a google search you'll find it.		 9/2/2008

Charles Lynn is right to everything said on her article. However, everyones bodies are wired differently. In order to tap into your god given genetics, there is more to it then a general guideline.
