Simple Exercise Plans To Burn Calories for Weight Loss
If you would like to look at losing weight using a simple exercise
plan, you can lose one pound a week by upping your activity
level by 500 calories a day. How easy is that to do? Take a look:
* Get out your bike and take a ride. Tackle a few moderate hills
and aim for about five miles total. Burn: 250 calories
* Go dancing - and really DANCE. The longer you're out on the
floor instead of at the table drinking up high-calorie drinks
or eating, the more you'll get out of it. Dancing that makes
you breathless and warms up your body will net you a nice calorie
savings. Burn: 400 calories for one hour.
* Take a half-hour walk around the park. Aim for a pace that's
a little faster than a stroll, but not fast enough to be breathless.
Burn: 160 calories.
* Play a game of tennis. Hook up with a friend for a weekly tennis
game and you'll be amazed at the difference. One hour of vigorous
tennis is one of the best calorie burners around. Burn: 800 calories.
Woo Hoo!
* Swimming is great for you, and is fun and relaxing. The water
resistance means you burn more calories, and you avoid
the stress impact on joints from aerobics, dancing or walking.
Do a few laps at a slow crawl - if you can get up to an hour
you'll be doing great! Burn: 510 calories
* Get out into your garden. It is good for your health and a
way to de-stress. An hour of gardening tasks that includes bending
and stretching can burn up to as many calories as a brisk walk.
Burn: 250 calories.
All exercise/calorie numbers are based on a woman weighing
130 pounds. If you weigh more, you'll burn more.
Want an added bonus to burning calories through exercise?
When you exercise, you build muscle by converting it from fat.
Your body uses more energy to maintain and feed muscle than it
does fat.
For best results, mix and match calorie cutting with an exercise
plan and you will burn off some of those calories.
Do keep in mind that eating less than 1000 calories a day
for more than a few days will convince your body that it's starving
and slow your metabolism. Keep calorie ranges reasonable, and
get out there and exercise.
