Can you do nothing but weights as your daily exercise and still lose weight??

Run with weights tied to your ankles.

And besides, when u gain more muscle, don't it burn up fat or something?
(probably not. i'm really tired)

no... lifting weights won't effectively burn your fats as lifting weights are only supposed to exercise your skeletal muscles. Fats are usually on top of the muscle layer, so most people that want defined abs need to run first.

if you want to lose weight, cardio exericses like the elliptical mechine will do the trick.. make sure you do it for at least 30 min.. ellipticals are easy on your knees.

oh btw, make sure you eat right... diet is just as important as exercise.

Of course! like jog around...um, play sports...stuff like that. and watch your diet. i dont though lol, i eat anything, it may have tons of fat but ill eat it. and i aint neva get fat lol

i suppose but it wouldn't be so much losing weight, as it would be toning instead.

it can make u lose weight if u do it as like aerobi excercise. LIke instead of benching 200 1 time .u can do bench 75lbs 20x ...and do set and rep over and over...woa la ur body is perfect! but ur stamina sux as hell, just like me.

sure, but you gain muscle as well,
and that's even more weight.

i am not sure. _unsure.gif

if all you do is lift weights, you will probably GAIN weight because you will gain muscle. and muscle weighs more than fat. i think...sorry, i don't know much! pinch.gif
