You may see someone dripping in sweat after their workout and may think, wow, they must have burned a ton of calories! Sweating isn't an indicator of a good workout. Sweating is simply your body's way of cooling itself. You can still burn a good amount of calories without sweating profusely. Light activities like a brisk walk will still burn calories and help maintain fitness.
Because you've tried everything else

Did you know that short but intense interval training has been proven more effective than much longer durations of low intensity work? I have more advice from research and personal experience at http://www.workoutreview.blogspot.com
Related to this (and you may have mentioned it elsewhere) is the myth that if you ache after lifting weights, it means you’ve had a good workout.
In reality, the ache means that you have been working muscles in a way they are not used to and doesn’t have a bearing on how hard you worked.
