People who are trying to lose weight and drop some body fat are always looking for the best thing available for fat loss. The best diet, the best fat burner, the best type of fat loss cardio, the best exercise for fat loss—anything and everything that will help achieve this.
Still, nobody has yet figured out the best exercise for fat loss.
Want to know the best exercise for fat loss?

THERE IS NO SUCH EXERCISE.

Yes, you read it right. If there was ever a best fat loss exercise and if it worked, you would see 90% of the people at the gym doing just that one single exercise.
Do you see everyone in the gym doing one same exercise every time you walk in?
Obviously, not!
Now, let's understand what leads to fat loss:

It has two components—the food intake part and your activity levels. The food intake is the 'Energy In' and the exercises you do/lifestyle you have is a part of 'Energy Out'.
The best way to increase your energy out? Simply move more. Yeah, it is as simple as that.
The thing you should be focusing on is to move as much as possible and to engage as many muscle groups as possible when you hit the gym.
Single body part a day? I do not think so.
Your bicep/triceps day or your shoulder day? Not even that.

Focus on full body movements or compound exercises that work for two to three muscle groups simultaneously instead of doing the one muscle group a day workouts.
Just take a guess, what will burn more calories? A back squat which works your full body at a given time or a set of bicep curls which work two fibers of your muscle?
On top of it, you also want to watch the number of calories going inside your mouth.
You can do all the full body exercises, you can take all the fat burner pills, burn as many calories as you want but it won't account for anything if the number of calories you are consuming is more than the number of calories you are burning.
Long story short, stop looking for best anything.
Fat loss is calories in lesser than calories out at the end of the day.
And if you want to burn more calories, start doing exercises that burn more calories and not one body part a day.
