Best exercises to do in 30 min. to loose weight.

[kassidy0806]

Hi.  I am currently taking HCG injections and phentermine along with watching what I eat.  The only time I have to exercise will be on my lunch from work.  THis will give me about 30-40 min.  Can someone please tell me the best exercises to do in this period of time to loose weight.  I will be going to the Y so I will have all equipment available.  Help!!  Thanks.

If you are just starting out, I wouldnt push too much for awhile. If it were me I would just start out on the treamills for about 15minutes, and then vary the machines for weight bearing exercises. If you are going to the y, maybe if there is a trainer there, they might be able to suggest the best machines to try. Good luck!! It is hard enough to try and lose weight, but when you have medications working against you, it is twice as hard.

Spin classes/sessions are the most efficient way to burn calories in a short period of time.  You can lose between 400-1000 calories in a 60 minute period.  This can be a strenuous workout for many people, so you may start out doing a modified version of the class/workout program.  If you go to a gym, there are probably spin classes available for you to take.

What exactly are spin classes?  What does it consist of?
