Actually, the phrase ‘the best cardio to burn fat’ is almost a contradiction in terms. That’s because the best cardio workouts don’t really burn all that much fat. To get a really good cardio workout, you want your heart up to its maximum safe rate.

When looking to figure out how your body is burning calories, you need to determine the minimum amount it needs to keep your heart beating, your lungs breathing, your body temperature normal, and so on – when you are doing absolutely nothing! This is known as your resting or basal metabolic rate (your BMR).

The most common excuse that people make to get rid of exercise is lack of time. Strangely enough, those same people have got enough time to chat with friends for hours or watch their favorite TV program while sitting on the couch.

The second excuse is that of money, and third one is of compatibility of the exercise equipment. Sure, not every type of exercise equipment suits every type of body, and hey, you are here to workout, not breaking your bones and ribs, are you?

There are many people who will find any number of excuses to avoid exercise or who may be too busy with friends and family to bother about staying in shape, and end up using just a treadmill exercise program.

The hectic routines we are faced with on daily basis leave us with little or no time for exercise; yet, we all know that is an essential practice, which ensures good health, great shape, and stress relief worth every minute of our life invested in it.

While some of us are fortunate enough and have access to a gym in their home, others are forced to improvise and make do most times with what is available on hand or, worse, not exercise at all.
