How Much Exercise For Weight Loss Is The Right Amount
People struggle to lose weight and keep weight off; it is one of the major problems of the western world, and can lead to heart failure, serious chronic illnesses such as diabetes, and has been linked to certain types of cancer. Losing weight is therefore essential, and exercise is probably the best way of doing this; but many people feel confused and intimidated by the idea of exercising.
One of the first questions they have is how much exercise for weight loss is necessary? Most of us exercise without knowing it, as even every-day activities burn calories; but not enough to help the body lose weight. Effective programs exist which are designed to help keep weight loss going, but donÂ’t answer the vital question: how much exercise should I do to lose weight at a suitable pace?
The average person should not lose more than one or two pounds of body fat each week in order to keep healthy. Excessive and sudden weight loss may backfire, and cause the body to ‘starve’ itself; slower weight loss than this and a large meal may easily result in no weight loss at all.
In order to lose around one pound of fat per week, it is estimated that the body needs to burn 4,000 calories; this is aside from the regular ‘burning’ which the body does every day. Therefore, in order to maintain a weight loss of one pound per week, a person will need to exercise enough to burn off 500-600 calories a day.
Having worked out how many calories need to be burned in exercise every day, now we need to consider much exercise for weight loss this calorie burning requires.
Walking and other day-to-day exercises burn around 15 calories per pound of body weight. For each mile walked, the body burns around 100 calories – so 5 or 6 miles would need to be walked every day in order to lose that weight, a rather daunting prospect.
Good weight loss advice often concludes by suggesting that people should exercise for around half an hour every day. This is suitable for improving and maintaining health, but weight loss requires more effort. Studies have revealed that people who exercise for around 275 minutes a week lose more weight, and keep it off, than those who do less. This relates to 60-90 minutes of exercise every day. This regime would include some form of aerobic exercise such as bike-riding, swimming, or walking, and a period of ‘other’ exercise, the most beneficial being weight training.
When considering how much exercise is needed for beneficial weight loss, it is also worth considering the starting weight; the more pounds a person has, the more calories they will burn, just by standing still. However, for people struggling with weight loss, it is important to consider whether more exercise for weight loss would be a good idea. Of course, how much exercise for weight loss is done depends upon the willingness of the person exercising, but in general, four hours a week of exercise is the least amount of exercise needed to lose weight and keep weight off.
BONUS : Be More Investigative When Choosing Weight Control Products
Millions of Americans undergo diet programs, in high hopes of controlling or losing weight. Unfortunately, not all these Americans are successful to keep their targeted weight off. So, what is the problem?
It can be because one of the three reasons:
• One is not sticking properly to the right regimen of the diet program; • One has chosen the wrong diet program; or
• Weight control products used are ineffective.
One of the common mistakes that these people commit when undergoing diet or weight loss programs is thinking they could get the fix overnight, so they always tend to overlook the requirements of properly losing weight. Also, it is not uncommon for people to enroll into a certain diet program but never sticks to its regimen afterwards.
In other cases, many people easily believe over the claims of some weight control products; thus, are also quickly trapped to false hopes of getting weight off their physical body immediately. Or that, are quickly chained into using ineffective products; hence, not gaining effective results at all.
Unfortunately, many people are yet to learn that they need the key to achieving your desired weight, which are the following:
• Using the right diet program/weight control product;
• Eating healthy, balanced foods; and
• Getting active in your daily lifestyle.
Conclusively, the kind of lifestyle you take together with the program or product has a large factor in accomplishing effective results. The bottom line, therefore, is to keep burning calories consistently because no matter how much expensive your program or product is, it would be useless if you constantly keep idling or being a couch potato.
Now, if you are going to choose from the many weight loss products available in the industry, remember that the number of choices is quite confusing. Nowadays, it isnÂ’t surprising if you encounter hundreds of these products available through over the counter, local clinics, or your local dealers.

Because of the dizzying number of these products, you need to be very vigilant than ever.
