Alin75 answered Thursday April 21 2011, 6:14 am: Creating a negative calorie deficit is the first and most imporant thing. That means consuming fewer calories than you burn.
To elevate the number of calories that one burns one can use exercise, and to lower the calories one intakes one can use dieting. However, its important to realise that without a calorie deficit, one does not lose weight no matter how much one exercises.
In regards to exercising, cardio is good and so is resistance training/weight lifting (as long as one focuses on major muscle groups rather than localised exercises).
Of the exercises you mentioned all can be useful. Walking is probably the least attractive option since it rarely elevates your heart rate into the cardio zone where you get most of the health benefits (this goes beyond buring fat strictly speaking, but why not get the optimal health benefits if one is going to go out and exercise anyway?).

Running, Jogging, Going up and down a flight of stairs repeatedly can also do the trick. If you like to walk, Go for a walk with your friend everyday and in time you will see a difference. [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]
