How to know what exercises are most effective for losing weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cardio Mix: If you have adipose tissue to lose (not everyone does), then consider an increase in cardio & a balanced diet. However, do not always do the same exercise or you will increase your risks for stress injuries. Since you are looking for low impact, mix things up with walking, biking, swimming, or circuit training with light weights. Ultimately you need to burn more than you consume.
