best fat burner?

esco Posts: 84 Joined: 2001/01/08	2002/04/18, 12:21 PM could anyone tell me what the best fat burning pill on the market is today? i hate running and i think thats why i cant loose this extra body fat. i have 11 % body fat and it hasn't gone down in a while, i am taking xenadrine now. is there any way besides a good diet and fat burners to lower my body fat without doing cardio? i just can't stand cardio it's so boring... also is 11% body fat for an 18 year old a lot?

You can take the strongest one and you'll still be at 11% bodyfat! Cardio, a clean diet and weight training...this combination will lower your bodyfat. -------------- **_Robert_**

Im only 21, but have started swimming 3-4 times per week, for half an hour in the morning. I take 4 hydroxycut and protein shake (with very few carbs) 30 mins before, and in just 2 weeks the results are amazing. However I'll be out of hydroxycut after next week, so I'll let you know how far cardio alone gets me. Just to add, I hate cardio, especially first thing, but if you force yourself to do it for a couple of weeks, the gains alone my just motivate you enough to continue. Jon

I think people just need to find a cardio that they like to do. -------------- And my soul must be iron, because my fear is naked. I'm naked and fearless.
