I lost 20lbs in 4 months strictly cardio. I really noticed results once I started HIIT.
Awesome, thats good to know. my cardio is going to be HIIT, around 20 minutes 4 times per week.0 -

Nice. If it's your first time doing it. Kind of feel it out before truly pushing yourself. My legs pretty much gave out on the treadmill and I almost flew into the wall. Ah, missed opportunity of a youtube moment.0 -
WOW! How long did this take you to achieve?
10 months0 -
I've gotten better results by upping my strength workouts over the last 5 months, than in the year or more doing mostly cardio. Yes I lost weight doing cardio, but I lost a lot of inches and dropped sizes faster lifting weights, but like others have said you still have to eat at a calorie deficit. If you do decide to focus on weight training, you should up your protein.0

I would happily never strap on my running shoes or get on the cross trainer again, if there was some other way of increasing the calorie deficit than not eating :P I like to eat...okay I do kind of like running, in a weird, saddistic, self-punishing way!
I have just started weight training properly, so watch this space I guess!0 -
I love weightlifting but I do throw in some "fun" cardio for myself. For me, video games entertain me enough to care about it for about 20-30 minutes about 5 days a week. I lift 3-4 days.0

I do cardio because I'm addicted to it.
I do strength training, because I hate the flab and want the muscle!!0 -
I lost my weight by eating 400-1000 less than my maintenance.
I changed the way my body looked by lifting weights.
I improved my endurance by doing cardio.
This, exactly.0
