It’s no secret that many of us are on the lifelong quest of losing weight and getting in shape. But it’s an uphill battle - believe us, we’ve all been there - with so many other things in life demanding our time and attention.
For a leg up, make this your go-to guide for streamlining your weight loss efforts. This year, we stuck to tradition by bringing back “Shape Recommends: The Best Fat Burning Classes” – the team tried all of these 19 group workouts before giving our thumbs up to include them in the list.
But if you prefer to fly solo, we’ve got a customised approach too with the best workouts for different body types, so you can hone in on the most important parts to work on.
And of course, we can’t shape up without watching what and how we eat. Our list of simple eating habits to boost metabolism will help intensify your results. Plus, we break down the three most popular alternative weight loss methods to find out if they are really worth the hype.

THE BEST FAT-BURNING CLASSES
Everyone on the Shape team worked her butt off (literally) to bring you this prized list.
We huffed and we puffed, and our limbs were wobbly across the weeks of putting out this issue. Reason: we were determined to suss out the most hard-hitting, high-intensity workout classes that give you the most bang for your weight loss buck.
Our criteria were straightforward – the classes should get our hearts racing and our muscles slaving. After all, fat burn only starts to happen at around 70 to 80 per cent of your maximum heart rate. Strength training workouts were also on our radar since building muscle mass helps to increase metabolic rate.
