If weight loss is your goal, the formula you need is regular activity + weight management nutritional program.  Ideally combining aerobic activity with weight training (Circuit Training) will not only increase your muscle mass and reshape your body, but it will also increase your resting metabolic rate to burn even more calories daily. 

For each 10 pounds of muscle you gain, your BMR will increase by 140!

And, circuit training continues to elevate your metabolism long after you have stopped exercising, resulting in many extra calories being burned, even while at rest.  Remember, it's your choice what activity to include in your routine - you have to make it fun for you.  But, if you are looking for a fast, efficient way to burn extra calories, then you will see that the circuit training program offered through the Personal Trainers of TRIUMPH! @ Home Services is what you need! Here is an example of the calories burned per 30-minutes interval for various activities for individuals weighing 100, 150 and 200 pounds for a variety of activities.
