Question What should I do for exercise and enough to where I see results?

Hello,
I've been on atkins for about 6 weeks and have lost approx. 16pds with no exercise. I've noticed that weight loss has slowed dramatically
I started working out this week, but nothing major. I did 30 min 2x this week on the eliptical. I would just like to know what kind of exercise regimen I should follow. I don't want to waste my time at the gym-I already hate it. I'm hot, sweaty, got a headache, no results on the scale,etc....Just looking for a workout regimen that will DELIVER results the fastest, combined with atkins WOE. Any suggestions from ppl that actually work out regularly and have lost weight are appreciated. Thank you.

Join a cycling club of any kind (mountain biking, regular cycling, etc). Last time I was in one, they called every night and morning for rides, and weekends were long rides. Didn't seem like exercise at all when I was riding with a bunch of friends.

If you're gym does body pump classes and spinning classes I'd do them! Yes you'll sweat like never before but they work...and fast! I'm going back to them this week

try doing short work outs like 7 mins of max resistance cardio

try lifting as heavy weights as you can to burn the glucose out of your muscles that helps big time with weight loss make sure someone shows you how to lift the weights correctly

remmber to start out at very low weights everyone has to start out at low weights no one starts out at super heavy weights

do leg curls and thigh extensions about 60 reps each to warm up your knees so they dont get sore then try doing squats on the smith machine first at a low weight

and each week or so increase your weight on squats and make sure you get someone to show you how to do squats properly

and do lots of abb work outs

and do some other work outs too remmber you dont have to spend all day doing the same light weight rep or something its better to do super heavy weights and just a few reps to really push your body hard but do it properly so you dont hurt yourself

this will burn the glucose from your muscles and then the little carbs that you do eat will go straight to your muscles makeing your fat loss MUCH better

or if your really lazy you can try the big 5 work out its only 12 min a week but its a very hard 12 mins
