Whichever one you enjoy and will stick to doing.
But weight loss is created by caloric deficit and your diet is the primary driver of that.14 -
Best is relative, 1hr on a treadmill versus 1hr on a bike doesn't matter. If you enjoy one more then the other then that exercise is more likely to become habit and be enjoyable rather then gruelling.5

Personally jumping rope does it for me!2

Go to the gym and Instructor will help you.0

The one you enjoy and can stick to:).2

Interval Training on the Treadmill or Exercise bike.
Or... Whichever you enjoy the most...2 -
I think the Stronger programme with Nicky Holender, free on YouTube, is fabulous cardio.0

Zumba - loads of fun and burns a lot of calories (more than aerobics) if you put the effort in. Or clubbercise if there is a class near you - no-one can see if you go wrong because its dark! If you want a DVD, I like Davina McCall's workouts or Lorraine Kelly's "Living to the Max" is a hard but fun workout (you can make it less hard e.g. by only doing one section).1

I prefer walking. I can do it much longer than I can run, it's easy on my body and I enjoy the trails and fresh air while I do it.7

If you're looking for calorie burn, running and jump rope seem to be the biggest raw burners. Otherwise like others have said, calorie defecit is the ultimate factor. Cardio and weights for health. Defecit for weight loss.1

I love to climb the steps and run up and down it seriously is amazing! And it's free!1

I agree with this quote! It's definitely about the calorie deficit not sure Op gets it .3 -
Choose something that you will enjoy and is right for you Every day, I use my treadmill for 5 minutes at fast walking speed, 30 minutes at running (nearly sprinting) speed and 5 minutes after at fast walking speed again!1

Nordic skiing. Competitive Nordic skiers are the fittest people on Earth.1

Personally I like kickboxing workouts like Turbo Jam or Cathe Friedrich videos. I also like walking videos with Leslie Sansone and Jessica Smith. Jessica Smith has ton of videos on You Tube.2

Obviously as others have said - which ever cardio you enjoy and will most likely stick with. However, I have noticed that HIIT (high intensity interval training) works for me. (I'm not a big fan at trying to lose weight to quickly, most will crash and burn. I feel progressive is more sustainable.)1

I will put in another vote for skiing. My last trip I ate and drank like a monster and only gained one pound. My go to is running, other than shoes its cheap and all I have to do is open my front door to get there.1
