Have you ever wondered how many calories you could burn everyday taking the stairs instead of the elevator? If you added them up you would be amazed at the thousands of calories burned in one year.

Nothing Happens Overnight: You Need To Give Yourself At Least 3 Months To See Any Results. Cardio will eventually become a routine and you’ll start to become addicted to the great feeling it brings.

Brisk walking or Power Walking burns calories twice as hard and helps you lose weight rapidly. But you might complain that you don’t have the time to walk, in this case the best possible option is to stop driving to the nearest mall or the grocery store.

Of course, for increased intensity, you may need to add aerobic or fast paced type of exercise if you want to burn more calories just for the sake of losing weight. If you are covering two or three laps of the swimming pool, the extra calories are burned out giving your body an excellent exercise.

Swimming along with a regulated diet is one of the quickest methods to lose weight as compared to some of the other exercises.

Not only does exercise burn calories, it also induces the processes of digestion and metabolism. Because your heart is a muscle, over time and exercise, it too will become stronger. Aerobic exercise burns fat calories while you are engaged in the exercise itself.

Strength Training Accelerates Fat Loss

On the other hand, strength training primarily contributes to weight loss by helping to increase the speed of your resting metabolic rate (RMR), which is the number of calories your body burns while you are at rest

The more calories your body burns, the more weight you are able to lose. And the more muscle tone that your body has, the more calories your body will burn around the clock, whether moving or at rest.

I hope this post has enlightened you a little on how to burn calories quickly & the many different ways you can exercise to fight the boredom. Once you experience an intense workout you’ll be amazed at the physical & mental rush you’ll feel afterwards!

   Can I just work on maintaining my weight and just exercise regularly? I found that dieting by this or that system, which makes me feel faint sometimes, is a bit too harsh to a beginner.

   Restricting too many calories below your maintenance levels will not give you the energy required to exercise at any level. Carbohydrates are especially important since they supply the energy for any work we do with our body.

   So the answer to your question is YES you can maintain your weight and exercise regularly. Eating complex carbs [broccoli,beans] and good fats [almonds,avocado]will give you the nutrition you need and energy as well.

   Go to the link below and figure out your “basal metabolic rate” which will give you your daily maintenance calories required to keep your current weight the same.

   This rate will depend on how active you and your body size.
