by Florentina Ryan

Part-4 How Much Do I Have To Exercise To Loss Weight? We
surely lose weight if we burn more calories than we take
in.. The normal maintenance activities such as muscle
repair, regular physiology and walking or cycling uses 15
calories every pound. One who does not work or move much
during the day might only need 12- 13 calories every pound
and one who moves all day might use 17 calories per pound.

Every mile walked or run burns 100 calories or may be less,
every half hour of brisk activity burns around 300 calories,
and it depends on how much you weigh and how vigorous the
activity is.

If the activity is raise by 500 calories everyday and do not
vary or change your food intake, you will lose 3500 calories
every week, the equivalent is one pound. If you reduce your
intake by 250 calories per day and increase your activity by
250 calories, then the net loss is still 500 calories per
day or 1 pound per week

Start to add activity slowly, use the stairs instead of
using the elevator or park your car at the far end of the
parking lot and walk to the shop or to work or play with
the kids at the backyard in the afternoon. Go dancing, fast
dancing is fun and get rid of stress. Swimming is a great
activity especially when the weather is warm.. You will lose
weight and have more energy for more activities.

In order to keep-up and maintain your weight after weight
loss, experts recommend that you do 60 to 90 minutes of
regular daily moderate-intensity physical activity while
pursuing to eat nutritious foods that do not over exceed
your calorie requirements. Studies show that physical
activity is very important to successful long-term weight
control.

People may need to do different amounts of physical activity
to lose and control weight. You may find that you need to do
more, or that you may not need to do as much. Also, remember
that your eating plan and the number of calories you eat are
important. You may wish to speak with your health care
provider, a fitness specialist, or a dietitian about the
right amount of activity and calories for you.

Strength training of minimum 30 minutes of
moderate-intensity physical activity everyday is suggested
for fat loss. Strength training helps in burning burn extra
calories, build strong muscles and bones, and joints and
enhance your physical function. The experts recommends
strength training 2 to 3 days every week, with one day of
rest between workouts to maintain your muscle mass.. Hire a
personal trainer who can plan a program to help you work out
safely and effectively if you are new to the exercise. He
