Fitness or wheight lifting is an excellent way to achieve an important goal for many of us: Weight Loss. But how should you start, which methods work?

Some basic guide lines:

1) More repetitions per set will burn more calories, and will not make you as mentally tired compared to heavy low rep sets
2) Keep Exercise sessions short! 45 minutes is a good start.
3) Do fun exercises, and try to get every muscle involved
4) Try to do some short cardio workouts to warm up, in between, and cool down
5) alternate exercises: legs, chest, abs, arms, shoulders, etc

RE: what should i do? by Nancy

I would try to change my diet if I were you. Try to limit all saturated fats.
Chocolate has a lot of fat, so if you don't want to give that up try lowering your fat intake in other food.
So low fat meats, chicken breast and fish are better. No fat from dairy.

There's nothing wrong with eating chocolate :) you just have compensate for the calories by cutting them from other bad food sources like saturated fats and sugars.

Good luck!
