Weight loss and Exercise
The general idea behind weight loss and exercise is the following: the more calories I burn and the less I consume, the more weight I will loose. Indeed this is true, but if your goal is to burn the extra fat, then you should look at some other things as well. First of all, it is a fact that with exercise you can achieve weight loss, the size of which depends on the type of exercise, duration and your body weight. The calories burned can range from 200-400 calories per hour.
This rate does not necessarily mean that the body burns from the fat reserves in order to find the energy needed for the exercise. For example, an intense short duration exercise, such as when you run or ride a bicycle with quick speed for 15-20 minutes, can burn 200-300 calories, but it is calories that come from the combustion of carbohydrate reserves and not fat! Only a moderate intensity exercise for a long duration can «burn» more fat. And of course when this physical activity is at regular intervals (3 times a week is enough and the benefits are a lot). So walk fast or do jogging for a long time, dance!, Do a sport you like, follow aerobic fitness programs etc and «Burn» fat. If your goal is not only weight loss, learn that physical activity has many benefits for health in general because it helps to regulate blood pressure, control blood sugar and helps to raise the «good »HDL cholesterol.

I enjoy water aerobic exercises and will proceed to go when I can. Although, I’m getting more out of leading and doing the elipitcal right now. I think it reckons on the teacher and how tight you work to see benefits. Some ladies are there just to socialize and move around which is great for them. When I was going 3 days a week, I could tell my body was in better shape! So aerobis exercise is good for health.
