Lose body fat

So basically I have been reading that no matter how many situps or whatever you do you wont be able to tell unless you are losing body fat.  So my question is what are the best exercises to lose fat, My body fat percentage is to high right now for my weight, and I want to know how to lower it.

All I do is jog and I've lost a ton of fat. Check out the profile for photographic proof.

You want to focus on cardio right now.  Walking, jogging, bike riding, aerobics, jumping rope, anything that gets your heart pumping without making you out of breath.

Cardio is NOT the answer. Clean up your diet, get rid of all added sugar and everything white. Eat your BMR and more on workout days.  Lift weights!

There is no exercise that will burn more calories than you can easily eat.  Diet has to be 70% of the weight loss equation.  Exercise is the rest. 

Muscle raises your metabolism, so muscle building has great benefits.  Cardio burns a lot calories too, but only while you are doing it and for a short time after.

So, the answer is:   Reduce calorie intake and increase exercise.

Interval cardio will burn a lot of calories while doing the activity but it will also burn calories for a while after. but you do need to build muscle because muscle burns the more calories in general. Most importantly none of the above will make any difference if your diet isn't in order. And its not just a matter of calories in verses calories out because if you take bad calories in (ie lots of fat) and don't support the muscle all your cardio will burn away your existing muscle and while you are losing weight you will actually look worse!

What I have learned and how I have seen results is to first of all eat low fat and low calorie foods that have a high density of nutrients, and stay active!  Do your cardio and lift weights... and focus on keeping your abs tight and maintaining good posture.  At home when you are watching tv or spending time on the computer take breaks and maybe do some push ups or jumping jacks.  Also it will not hurt if you do a few crunches, and mix up the way you are performing them.  Like the others said... diet is the main key to weight loss and exercise is a supplement...so do both!

Cardio is the best, you want to burn fat, try starting with low speed for 5 to 10 minutes to warm up, then go up for 5 to 10 minutes level 7,8,9, 10, then go low again, do this for 30 minutes or 40 minutes a day, if you doing cardio, believe I do it and not only loose weight but burn tons of fat from ym body

i walk.  i do alot of walking!  i'm lazy, so i figure it's the easiest exercise i can do.  :D
