Is cardio or strength training better for fat loss?

Both help, but strength training should be the priority. It protects and builds muscle while you lose fat, so you end up leaner rather than just lighter. Cardio burns calories and supports heart health, and walking is the easiest place to add it.

A good mix is two to four strength sessions a week plus daily walking, and one or two cardio sessions if you enjoy them.
