You can have a good time burning calories as you experience the immediate benefit resulting in dropping the weight. Did you know that by burning an additional 500 calories per day, totaling to 3500 calories for the week the average person will lose one pound?  A pound may not sound like much of a weight lost but you will find that the safest way to lose the weight and keep it off is to lose it slowly at about 1-2 pounds per week for the average person. It is important to note that you should ALWAYS check with your physician before starting any new or more strenuous exercise program.

Simple chores and fun hobbies can exert enough energy to burn nearly 200 calories. For example, knitting/crocheting burns some 193 calories per hours; playing the piano burns some 214 calories per hour. The calorie burned totals listed here are activities conducted for 60 minutes…each: hitting the boxing bag burning some 447 calories; a three mile walk can burn some 336 calories; moderate swimming burns some 469 calories; moderate Calisthenics can burn about 346 calories; stretching can burn some 306. The trampoline is another good way to burn lots of calories.

The amount of calories you burn will depend in part on your weight, the activity and the minutes spent at that particular activity.  The key to a good weight loss program is a consistent routine and a well balanced diet. Once active, you will want to remember to keep active.   Locate a Calories Burned Calculator by visiting the website healthstatus.com.

During the Fall/Winter months walking can create a challenge in some areas due to extreme weather conditions. Indoor facilities often are available for the determined athlete. The local mall is a good place to start. Malls may open their doors to the general public around 6:00 a.m. for use of their site for your early morning walks. Check with the management office of your local Mall. High School gymnasiums may be an alternative place to workout either early mornings or weekends. Walking/running stairs is very popular in Southern California. Try walking/running bleachers located at your local high Schools, Colleges/Universities, and other popular exercise sites.

The Fall season is truly an awesome time of year. So be consistent with your caloric burn routine and you will meet your goal to drop unwanted pounds in a safe and sensible way. Just be sure to select activities that work best for “you.” As calories are burned while we sleep, read and write do not neglect the importance of laughter. Laughter increases our hormone production and heart rate and contributes to better circulation and muscle tone. You can create your own healthy way to burn.  As you notice the lost of inches and feel the weight drop off remember to celebrate your success, give thanks and have a “somber chuckle.”
