Exercise is one of the two most commonly used methods for losing weight, with cardiovascular exercise being the most effective form for weight loss. Although such exercises as cycling, running and cross-country skiing are cardiovascular options, walking can be just as valid a choice. It's low-impact, often more enjoyable and accessible without specialized equipment. Walking on a treadmill even eliminates the need to wait for good weather.
Exercise and Weight Loss
If you eat fewer calories than you take in, your body burns fat to access the energy stored in fat cells. Lost fat equals lost weight. Exercise boosts your daily energy needs, meaning you increase the number of calories you burn during the day. You need to do 3,500 calories worth of exercises for each pound you want to lose -- assuming you don't increase how much you eat in response to the extra energy expenditure.
