    Sort of like when you step a car's accelerator it burns more fuel to faster. Still following?

    But what about fuel economy? If you press the gas running in place you dont go anywhere, you just waste fuel.

    Everyone knows theres a Search feature right?

    Treadmills increase fuel efficiency, allowing you to run further with less calories burned. This is less than ideal for weight loss. :)

    Can you lose 30 IQ points reading MFP? Yes, as long as you are in an intelligence deficit, you will lose IQ points. Doesn't matter how much you can dead lift.

    You can lose weight standing on your head....if you eat at a moderate and healthy calorie deficit. :laugh:

    Strength training helps to maintain muscle and lifting burns calories. And helps you look GOOD! Now, enough time has been spent on this thread. Go pick up something heavy!!

    A caloric deficit will lead to weight loss (this can happen with no exercise, or cardio only or strength training only) What strength training does is ensure that a large % of your loss will be from fat and less muscle loss.
