How to Diet Down NOW

I am walking 5 km and climbing 360 stairs in 2 hrs. How many calories am I burning. How do I calculate it. Pls advise.

Tks

the best way to calculate is by counting your heart rate i.e pulse rate
when u work out calories (in other words energy) comes from carbs first then muscle proteins and then fat.
when u do intense exercising ur body decides to choose fat over the rest bcos fats is the best and consistent source.
so do an intense work out and count ur pulse….
if its >155-165/min it means u r burning ur fat.and it shud remain there for atleast 20 min

And does every step count towards burning calories?

Do you exercise? You burn calories when you sleep.

I heard on the Biggest Loser that walking is great because it burns about the same amount of calories as running, just because you are going the same distance, is that true.
What about metabolism speed after running and after walking? Is there a big difference in boosting metabolism in each exercise?

The only real advantage to running is you can cover more distance in a shorter time. If you only do 10 mins exercise then running will burn more calories as you’ll go further. However if you do 10 miles then running or walking are basically the same but the running can cause impact injuries.

I’m eating around 1200 calories a day and I jog for about 20-30 minutes a day. I keep reading you need to burn more calories than you eat to lose weight. So my question is do I have to burn 1200 calories a day just to lose weight? Thanks

Yes. When demand is greater than input the body will begin to "eat" itself for fuel. However, you don’t need to burn all 1200 calories in a single jog. You are burning calories constantly. Even thinking does this.

Some Metabolic Secrets from A Post Falls Personal Trainer

Did you know that Dieting actually lowers your resting metabolic rate so it’s more difficult to keep the weight off? Sounds crazy huh! It’s not hard to see why dies aren’t successful most of the time. This personal trainer tells you the truth.

Your resting metabolism drops from 2 to 10 calories a day for each pound you lose. You loose a higher percentage of muscle when you go on a crash diet. Increasing your aerobic and resistance exercises and decreasing your calories. This way you can loose the fat but build up the muscles in your body. If every day you ate 200 fewer calories and worked off 200 calories you could maintain or add muscle while you are losing body fat. Did you know that you can burn more calories by drinking the correct amount of water?

Drinking 8 to 12 8oz glasses of water a day offers a higher metabolic rate to people than those who only drink half that. Your body’s metabolism depends on water so if you get dehydrated, you may be burning up to 2% fewer calories. The personal trainer says this is one more reason to keep drinking water throughout the day.

Will hot foods will raise your metabolism?

If you eat about 1 tablespoon of chopped red or green chile pepper it can temporarily raise your metabolism by 23%. Better get out the salsa, which is made with tomatoes. You can raise your metabolism and eat a heart healthy food that’s an excellent source of lycopene.

Did you realize that lifting weights raises your metabolism more than a cardio workout will?

Your personal trainer will teach you that he best way to gain muscle is with resistance training.

When you’ve trained enough to add 3 pounds of muscle to your body, you can burn about 100 extra calories every day. Your body’s lean muscle mass is not significantly increased by aerobic exercise. That’s why this personal trainer tells you that lifting weights is a key factor when you are getting your body into shape. Squats, push ups and any exercise that utilizes both lower and uppper body are the best exercises. These types of exercises work the largest muscles and use two-part movements and they will help you build more lean mass.

How can you experience the metabolic afterburn?

The harder your workout, the bigger the payoff. You can look forward to burning at least 10 % of the total calories used during the workout in the hour or so after you stopped exercising.

If you follow your personal trainer’s advice and walk for 4 miles, which uses about 400 calories, you may burn an extra 40 calories in the next few hours if you add some jogging to your routine.

When it comes to burning fat some people may be clueless but most are not. Most people know the basics like cutting calories and working out. The thing about the science of burning fat is that there are so many things to know it is almost impossible to know them all. This can actually be a great source of frustration and cause you to give up if you are not getting great results right away. Here are a few of the lesser known things about burning fat to help you get that extra edge and make a fit lifestyle a reality for you.

One of the hardest things for people to do is to stop the habit of grazing or in other words eating little bites of junk food pretty much all day. It is easy to start of the day with the right intentions and eat a healthy meal but it gets hard to stay on track and not eat until your next scheduled meal. One thing that can help with staying on track is to actually brush your teeth after every meal. On the surface this sounds like it has nothing to do with burning fat but in fact it can help you to avoid the pitfall of eating junk in between meals. After you brush your teeth most foods will taste bad. So it helps you to steer clear of eating that candy and sweets. If you do not want to or are unable to have your toothpaste with you all the time you can even try carrying a small container of mouthwash, preferably the slightly mediciny kind. This will give you the same effect of canceling out the good taste associated with eating snacks until your next regular meal.

Another thing most people do not realize is that the proper amount of sleep is essential to burning fat and being healthy in general. If you are working out and eating right but then only getting a few hours of sleep or getting interrupted sleep then you are cheating yourself. A solid 8 hours is ideal to allow the body to heal from a workout and get into fat burning mode. Make sure you work to get the sleep as hard as you work to include the gym in your regular routine.

Finally one thing to remember is to burn fat you have to eat fat. It is true. You might not think so but healthy fats are an essential part of a good fat burning Diet. As long as you are eating natural unprocessed foods then a good amount of good fats will help stoke the fat burning fires. Good fats mean you are getting your fat from healthy sources like oily fish such as salmon and also from healthy roasted nuts. These will give your body the fats it needs to be healthy and burn off the ugly fat on your body.

While fat burning can seem like a hard thing to figure out due to the amount of different methods one thing to remember is that you can not succeed if you do not try. Just make sure to give it your all and you will not fail.
