Which is more effective for losing fat, weight training or aerobics?

Both aerobics and weight training can be very effective at promoting fat loss. Aerobics burns fat during the session and the harder the aerobic workout, the more fat you burn during your aerobic session. Weight lifting, on the other hand, burns less fat during the workout, but your metabolism will stay elevated as your body recovers from an intense workout, which burns fat between workouts. it's best to include both hard aerobics and intense weight training if your want to be both lean and muscular.
