Exercise To Lose WeightRecent weight loss studies show that if we quit smoking and exercise regularly we are less likely to gain weight. In fact, people who do not exercise are twice as likely to gain weight as those who do exercise. By including 30 minutes of physical activity in our daily routine and eating a balanced low fat diet we can promote optimum weight loss. Three 10-minute exercise sessions are just as effective a way to burn calories as one 30-minute session. Research shows that exercise increases our metabolic rate (the rate at which we burn calories), while aerobic exercise can cause our metabolic rate to stay high and burn calories for several hours after we've finished. Resistance training builds muscle, and for every pound of muscle we gain, we'll burn an extra 50 calories per day. So we burn more calories and lose weight faster - even at rest. Aerobic
