      If you don’t want to do sprints, my weight loss rule of thumb is panting.

      You gotta be pushing yourself to get out of breath. That’s literally how you lose weight. You exhale it. So push your body to exhale a lot.

      I use small hikes to stay in shape.

        Can you expound a bit about panting? Do you mean any kind of activity that results to you panting would work?

          Unless you’re panting because you’re scarfing down food so fast you need to catch your breath, then yes.

          Weight loss can pretty much always be simplified to calories in, calories out. All the different fads, trends, diets, and fasting are all just different means to either reduce your calories in, or increase your calories out.

          Anything that makes you pant is more calories out.
