This is a problem. Consistency matters so whichever you choose, make it a year-round endeavor (or better yet, do both alternately). Diet is the biggest part, particularly if your weight issues are seasonal.

Weight training is beneficial--muscle tissue is more metabolically active than fat tissue and is psychologically intrinsically motivating because when you have it you don't want to see it go away.

Again, repeating much of the above by other posters, consistency and diet are key.


Now, want to use cycling to lose weight but don't have a local cyclist to walk you through the process? Read this.

Want to use swimming, since you already have experience? Do some focused practices with carefully monitored rest a la Total Immersion or SwimSmooth or a variety of other technique-focused swim courses.


But BE CONSISTENT.
