weight loss is almost all in the kitchen as azk said, exercise is great for overall fitness, metabolism, and feeling good about yourself, but really better viewed as a supplemental activity in terms of weight loss. it's very easy to overcompensate on your diet because you went to the gym today.

jumping rope is a really great cardio exercise, after you get good it's a great HITT exercise. if you have a punching bag at your gym, that's another great thing to do although you'll want to get some bag gloves.
