I myself am a firm believer in weight training. There are so many articles will tell you this if you google this same question. Also read up about the effects of calcium vs calcium supplements for weight loss. I learned alot about that issue on google too.
It boils down to the shape of your body. Cardio will shed unwanted pounds, but resistance training will transform your body. For example...some one with a pear shaped body who wants to get that hour glass shape every one is after will not get it from cardio alone. They will just become a smaller pear.
So if you are happy with the shape of your body, Cardio will shed the pounds.
Any way that is my opinion only!! There may be certified trainers who dissagree, but I doubt you will find many. |
