Does Weight Training Burn Body Fat?
Gained a bit of unwanted belly fat this winter. I was curious if curling/benching helped burn belly fat at all? I normally run to burn body fat but due to the weather, I can’t. I’ve also began watching what I eat and I’ve quit drinking soda.
What other exercises can I do to help?
Thanks!

Weight training burns fat better than cardio actually. When doing cardion you ony burn calories while you’re doing it but with weight training you body will continue to burn calorie 3 days after your workout due to your muscles rebuilding….but you still need to throw some kind of carido in there in get fast results.
As for exercises, do movments that utilize the most muscle groups as in squats, deadlifts, pull-ups, and pushups…. always try to use body wieght exercises instead of weghted ones (ex do push ups instead of bench press)

Weight training increases muscle mass, which in turn, boosts your metabolism. So, as a by-product of the weight training, you may burn body fat. If you make your weight training more aerobic (more reps, less weight), you may achieve more fat loss.
