Best machines to hit at the gym for burning fat?

What are your favorite machines to hit at the gym to burn fat? I just signed up for a 24 hour fitness membership and weight loss is my main goal right now.

The treadmill or the Jacob's ladder. The treadmill most accurately reflects natural human movement and the ladder is just about a full body workout.

There will be a lot of people who will recommend barbell focused strength training to change your body composition. They are not wrong and you should consider that advice.

Machines/workouts don't burn fat. Calorie deficit does. So no machine is better than another if you burn the same amount of calories in a session. Just do what you like most and you're more likely to stick to it.

Personally, I love running (outside if possible) and weight lifting.

This. Exercise doesn't burn fat, it burns calories.

Recommendations are true... your nutrition will do the fat loss. The workouts will make the sexy. Machines are all built for specific purposes... know your purpose (finding a great, holistic resistance program) and know the best machines.
