When it comes to training for fat loss in the gym, you could ask three different people what the best option is and easily get three different answers.

One person may swear by high intensity interval training. Another may say that long duration, low intensity, steady state cardio is the best way to go. And yet another may recommend “boot camp” style group classes, where the pace is quick and the heart rate stays elevated.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with any of those— they’re all useful fat burning tools in their own right.

But the question was, “what’s the best option to burn fat in the gym?”

And what most people really mean by that is — what’s the best option to burn body fat and develop a shaped, toned physique?

The answer? Good old fashioned resistance training.

Understand that when we say we simply want to look “shaped and toned”, they are not the same thing.
