Training your body shape training tip:
Every little bit helps!
There are 3500 Kcal in 0.45Kg of fat. Although this may sound an incredible number, when compared to the calories you burn in a workout, regular training can make a big difference:
If you burned 300 Kcal a day through your chosen exercise and increased general activity, in a year you could theoretically remove 13.6Kg of fat from your body.
Check the table below for cals burnt during exercise -
Activity Kcals/hr approx Kcals/min
Aerobics high intensity 520 8.5
Cycling 16 Km/hour 384 6.4
Cycling 8.8 Km/hour 250 4.2
Rowing (moderate) 445 7.4
Swimming (fast) 615 10.2
Swimming for fitness 630 10.5
Weight Training 270-450 4.5-7.5
Treadmill Running (5.6 min/km) 750 12.5
Treadmill Running (3.8min/km) 1000 16.6
The above figures are based on a 65Kg individual. If you weigh more you’ll burn more calories, if you weigh less you’ll burn fewer calories
