What are some Web sites or good ways to burn fat fast?

Walking. Most people only utilize fat as an energy source at a particular level of exercise. The average person won't burn fat by going out and running as fast as they can. Brisk walking 30-40 mins a day is the best (and probably cheapest) way to burn fat. There are other health benefits to walking. If you can't walk try swimming. And I would suggest speaking to your physician before starting to exercise.

There is no site specific way of losing fat... the old myth about working your abs to burn belly fat isn't true. To get rid of love handles, you need to lose overall fat. That happens with exercise and watching your diet. More on that below. \n\nThe most effective way to lose fat is aerobic exercise in the "moderate" fat-burning range, ideally first thing in the morning before you eat. When you wake your body is ready to burn fat and your levels of growth hormone are highest at that time. Later in the day it can take up to 30 minutes just to put your body into a fat-burning mode. \n\nAnother overlooked way to burn fat is by lifting weights. Skeletal muscle has very high caloric needs... almost twice that of adipose (fat) tissue. Put on a little muscle and you will burn calories all day even at rest. Be aware that skeletal muscle weighs more, so with this approach you may see your weight increasing while your body fat is melting away. Not realizing this often stresses folks who think they should be losing weight as a measure of fitness. Forget the scale, look in the mirror and you will be happy.\n\nYou are welcome to look at my 360 Blog of September 10 for more detailed ideas.\n\nAloha

increase your metabolism by exercising regularly, eating more meals but smaller portion, increase your lean muscle tissue by doing weight and resistance training. building more muscles can help burn body fat 24/7. the results dont really come THAT fast. fast weight loss is normally due to water loss from the body.

First, for all of the "quick and easy" weight loss diet pill suggestions, remember, if something sounds too good to be true... it probably is, particularly if you have to pay for it.\n\n\nOn Yahoo!Answers I find certain questions being asked repeatedly which is simply a reflection of new people participating. A couple of common questions amount to "How do I lose weight," or more specifically, "How do I lose abdominal fat?" I have gotten very positive responses from my answers when I paused to reply (and now beginning to get "It works!" emails that are very gratifying. I like helping people)... so have recently decided to put a good solid answer on my Yahoo!360 Blog (September 10) that I can point people to. These are my thoughts as a physician and athlete.\n\nDon't target losing more than about 2 lbs per week. If you try to lose faster, your body will go into "starvation mode" and get very stingy about burning calories while at the same time very efficient about storing any calories that you do provide. And it will make you feel awful. \n\nThere is no site specific way of losing fat... the old myth about working your abs to burn belly fat isn't true.

Not realizing this often stresses folks who think they should be losing weight as a measure of fitness. Forget the scale, look in the mirror and you will be happy.\n\nTo lose a pound of fat, you need to eliminate about 3500 calories. You can do this by burning more with exercise or by modifying your diet to reduce intake. If you do a Google search on say, "swimming calories" you will quickly find a website with tables of calories burned for a given exercise. You can use such lists to estimate how many calories you are burning up with your routine.\n\nFor diet, keep a diary for a couple of weeks counting calories, grams of protein, and grams of fat intake. It is easy with online sources of nutritional information (type the name of the food and calories into the Google search engine) and packaging labels. That will let you quickly figure out where the fat is coming from in your diet. \n\nFat gives you 9 calories per gram. So take the number of grams of fat, multiply by 9, then calculate what percentage the fat calories are of your total daily calories. Restricting the calories from fat to about 20% of your total intake is ideal for a maintenance diet... that isn't overly restrictive. Of note, you need some fat in your diet. For instance, the body uses fat to produce hormones. Once you have a picture of how to modify your diet, you can drop the diary and just go back to it occasionally if you are wanting to tweek things further.\n\nThere is a subset of questions that goes further and asks about "How to get a six-pack?" The answer is the same. Six-packs are 20% abdominal exercise and 80% diet. There is one caveat... abdominal muscles will form in the position that you work them, so be certain to pull them tightly toward your spine while doing crunches, etc. Also, during most lifting, the "core is active" which means that you should be stabilizing with contracted abs

I target about 0.8 g of protein per pound of body weight each day when actively building. That is far more protein than most people need in their diets.\n\n\nAloha

contrary to popular belief, you cant just target a specific area when losing fat. You must reduce your body fat percentage in your ENTIRE body and eventually the belly fat will go too. \n\nThe best way to lose fat is simple - exercise. If possible, do some cardio first thing in the morning before eating any full meals. This burns the maximum amount of fat. Since your body has not had any food for the last 7-10 hours, it burns the fat in your body for energy. If not, then cardio and a little weight lifting anytime of the day will do. It is important to build some muscle since it will aid in your fat loss. The more muscle mass you have, the faster your metabolism.\n\nAlso, try eating small meals more frequently as opposed to the big 3 (breakfast, lunch, dinner). try to eat a small meal every 3 hours. The reason for this is that your body burns more calories since it is constantly digesting something in your stomach and will raise your metabolism. It is also useful to eat small meals because your stomach will not be stuffed and will always have a smaller look. If you are afraid of doing this because you might end up eating more, try this: when you are about to eat lunch, separate everything on your plate into 2. eat half and leave the other half to be eaten 3 hours later. do the same with dinner.\n\nlastly, losing weight is just simple math. If your calories taken in is more than when you use up (exercise, daily activities, metabolism, etc) then you gain weight. If it is less, then you lose weight. If you are really determined to lose weight then i suggest you start counting how much calorries you consume a day and cut it by 300-500 each week until you notice some results.\n\nif you are really serious, avoid eating foods high in sugar without any real nutritional value (chocolate, cakes, doughnuts, ice cream, all desserts) and foods way up there in the calorie scale (pizza, fried anything, etc). Foods which are very sweet like the ones mentioned above contain a lot of simple sugars which do nothing but make you fatter. What you want to be eating are complex carbs (wheat bread, oatmeal), foods high in protein (tuna, beef, chicken breast, etc), vegetables and fruits as these foods have the most nutritional value and will help in your fat loss. dont over eat with these foods only because they have good nutritional value. remember as long as you have a caloric surplus, you WILL gain weight, no matter how healthy you eat\n\nby doing all of the above, you will be able to achieve a lean body with a good body fat percentage. This will ensure that your stomach is flat and hard. However, if you want abs (im assuming that you do) you will have to train them hard. There are quite a number of exercises for the abs on this page http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/exercise... like the different variations of crunches and oblique exercises to get you started.\n\none more thing. losing a few lbs (2-3) a week is optimal as losing more (5-10lbs) a week would lead to a drastic loss of muscle mass and would only produce a smaller, not necessary thinner, version of yourself. losing that much weight can also be decieving as most of it will be from water and muscle, not much from fat. It will only be a matter of time before you cannot take the starvation any longer and you will eat everything in sight. you need to change your eating habbits and drop your calories gradually as opposed to a sharp drop.

I don’t know about food, but I know an AWESOME way to get ride of fat…and quickly. And guess what? It is a BLAST to do! \n\nTake any type of a dance class. Dance everyday to something quick, and watch the pounds fly away!

im not sure how "quickly" you mean. but if you are a male, eating about 1750 calories each day and adding exercise is a great way to lose lbs.\n\nfor breakfast eat things like eggs with yogurt and fruit or oatmeal, lunch can be a tuna sandwhich or ham and cheese on wheat bread..or a salad with chicke on top... dinner can be steak chicken or fish with a couple of veggies and a potato..and snacks can be nuts, energy bars, fruit, beef jerky, etc.\n\nIf you dont exercise at all...begin with 45 minutes of light cardio like walking or biking.  then bump it up to jogging and walking. \n\nmost people can easily lose 2 lbs a week on a normal diet but i have seen people lose 5 a week on this type of diet.  The most important parts are eating HEALTHY food (you can have as much fruit and veggies as you can eat!) and trying to exercise atleast 4 days a week.\n\ngoodluck!

Assuming that the goal is to eliminate fat, the best exercises will use maximum muscles (butt and legs) have fairly low intensity- so slow,don't make yourself out of breath. and do it daily for 15 to 30 minutes at least.\njogging slowly, elipticals, or cross country skiing are the best fat burners.  Remember, go slow.

first try doing you cardio on an empty stomach in the morning when you glycegen (spelling?) levels are at their lowest and you do not have any food/calories in your system. You will burn fat more effectively this way. Also, try doing High Intensity Interval Training. On the eliptical machine, do the hill workout. It progressively gets higher and it alternates when the most effort is needed. It will give you a minute of max effort and then a minute to rest. Also, try doing your treadmill on an incline. If you walk on the treadmill, walking on an incline gives you a 30-40% harder workout without walking faster or without pounding your body. Drink at least 1 gallon of water a day and try to stop eating at least 3-4 hours before bedtime. Good luck.

Join a gym and start using an eliptical trainer (aka Precore)Those things work fast and you burn alot of calories. It's also the healthiest way.
