will using an elliptical help me lose weight?
i figured since it was burning calories and getting my heartrate up it would help, but my sister says it will only make me look bigger because it will build muscles under fat (especially with high resistance)
i am 5′5 140 lbs. i have been running every day for a week for 20 to 30 mins. (after i do some arm exercizes and crunches) my resistance is set to 5. and i put it on the weight loss setting.
oh and sometimes i hold 2lb weights while running. idk if that helps
also, if you have any good weight loss tips please leave them in your comment
i know eating right is important, but im looking for details like snack meals or even new work outs. THANK YOU

here you go… this is what i do.
Cardio
3-4 days a week of cardio exercise specifically interval training. For example: Warm up for 5 mins, 1 min of high intensity, 1 min and 30 secs of lower intensity, 1 min of high intensity, 1 mins 30 secs of lower intensity. I do this five times. One of my favorite exercises is running up and down high school bleachers. Also embrace the local hills, the steeper the better because they really get your heart rate up. You should be working to the point where you are breathing fast. So yes your elliptical WILL help you loose weight.
Strength Training
2-3 times a week I do strength training. If no weights then focus on squats, lunges, push ups. If you have weights add them in as you go when you’re ready. Most importantly listen to your body, if anything hurts or does not feel “right” don’t do it.
Nutrition
I eat 5 meals a day on average between 350-450 calories per meal following a 50% carbs, 30% protein, 20% fat ratio. Translates into 3-4 oz of protein, 1-2 cup of veg, 1/2 cup of carbs (brown rice or pasta)
