A member asked:
Can you help? could running with a garbage bag get rid of belly fat and keep it off?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: Upon the number of calories burned up that you don't eat, not the type of exercise. It's 3500 calories to the pound. Any exercise can be effective, except your body will choose where to lose the fat and you can't direct it to a specific place. Running with a garbage (i assume you mean wearing the bag not carrying it) causes more water loss, but not real weight.
