Naturally, the best way to lose weight is to perform a bunch of different exercises instead of just one type. That said, If you could pick only one exercise for weight loss, that you would consider to be the best one which one would you pick?

Ok so here's what I really think about it. I do think that cardio is the one that is best for losing weight because it is the one that burns the most calories. If you lift weights, you don't blast through calories liek you do if you're running or swimming. But at the same time, if you strenght training you build up all these bigger muscles that help you to burn more calories when you're idle. If you do yoga then you sleep better and reduce stress while you also make it easier to do other exercises because you're more flexible. So they all make a difference but for the one that has the biggest impact on its own, I really have to say cardio.

If you want to count the calories you burn just during the workout, then sure, the cardio is going to do the most. But if you want a result that really keeps working for you, then build up your lean muscle mass! Then while you’re sitting on the couch between workouts, your body will continue working for you because muscles are calorie burning machines

Cardio! All the way. If you do your own test and do all of your workouts for a week as cardio exercises and then do them for a week with strength training, you'll see that you'll lose way more with cardio. Cardio is what works your muscles and your cardiovascular system the most and burns the calories. It shouldn't be all you do, but out of 5 workouts a week, make it 3.
