<p>"Is running the only way to burn fat".</p>
<p>No, a lot is your diet, but you also need to some type of cardio. Jogging, riding a bike, hiking, swimming, skiing, walking your dog, all burn calories. </p>
<p>Most people try to get into their fat burning zone which concerns heart rate. It is simple. Just borrow a heart rate monitor, or buy a watch with one(they are inexpensive). Next time you are doing your cardio, youll want to go for your perfect heart rate which is; 220-age * .7 For instance, 220-17 * .7 =142 This means when you are doing your cardio, you want to be going at a pace so that your heart rate is 142 bpm.</p>
