How long do you have to run on an eliptical trainer to burn fat?

Question

i recently got an eliptical trainer, and i want to lose fat in my legs. i plan to run on it everyday...but for how long do i have to run per day to burn fat?

is 20 minutes good enough? or does it have to be longer?

thanks so much!

Answer 1

the longer the better! if you really wanna lose significant weight then i'd be looking more at 2+ hours a day.

Try going on long walks. Maybe go exploring in some nearby areas. Can be fun! Or go for a nice long bike ride. Will definately be more fun that training indoors.

10mins indoors feels like 1hour outside alot of the time

Answer 2

Well, you definitely have to run more than 15 minutes before fats start to get burned. The best is to run 30 minutes, take a 3 minute break, and then go back for another 30 minutes. Note that when you are taking the 3 minute break, do not sit down as you will get a big bum if you do.

Good luck! :D

Answer 3

i usually go for 30 minutes.

theres a mode called weight loss

that i use & it goes for 28 minutes and has a 5 minute cool down.
