> Cardio is important for overall health, but you aren't going to burn enough calories for it to be a major source of weight loss. I am sorry but this claim doesn't make a great deal of sense. For example, running expends about 1 kcal/kg/km [1,2]. On a personal note, I went from 105kg to 75kg body weight by doing endurance sports (for the avoidance of doubt, it was all fat loss with localised gain of muscle mass). I have a record of all workouts and almost-daily weigh-ins for 6+ years, and there's a very high degree of inverse correlation: during periods when I run/bike more, the weight goes down, and vice versa.
