okay.. just to let u in on some info... (dont listen to the people above.. they have no clue) ... anyways... everything you do in a day burns calories... watching tv, eating, sleeping, even reading a book burns calories. ur body will burn them all day long.. but if you also add a wieghtliftin program then it will REALLY help

3,000 calories are in a pound..so it all depends on how many calories you burn for what exercise you are doing. say you burn 6,000 calories (which is almost impossible for 8 hours) you would lose 2 pounds. but dont forget you are going to eat at some point during the day and that will put some of the calories you burned off back on. I'd say that the mose weight some could lose in one day (or 8 hours) would be about 1..maybe a little more maybe a little less.  Hope this helps

No.. they say that 20 minutes a day is good enough but thats BUNK.. if you really want to lose weight by exercise, 20 minutes of mild cardio is just enough to get your bod warmed up enough to start losing calories.  Of course your results may differ because its all about metabolism.  if you are just starting out I would start out with the 20 min, then 30, and eventually work your way up to 60 minutes.  When you can do that however you may decide and I would recommend someth more vigorous.. like a stair master.. \n\nI could burn as many calories on a stair master in 20 minutes as i could in an hour of treadmill!\n\nGood luck and stick with it... its worth it really!!\n\nAs far as how long?  That really depends on how hard you try, and how well you stick to it... but if your agressive about it.. 4 to 6 weeks will start showing you some results in the mirror... also please remember this... go by the mirror and not by the scales, especially if you weight train as well.. which I would also recommend.. cardio alone just never seems to be enough.

It depends on how intense youre doing it. If youre going at moderate pace you would lose about 500 or so calories in an hour. But when you go intense, you lose more calories alot after the work out. \n\n(All I said was for cardio exercise.)

This is a huge misconception in the fitness industry. Every kind of training, whether it's interval or otherwise has the potential to burn fat, it's how much fat is burned that makes the difference between one activity and the next.  You said it perfectly..."any increase in physical activity will mean more calories used = weight loss"\n\nLow-intensity exercise is not as effective as high-intesity exercise at burning calories. High-intensity exercise is not as effective (percentage wise) as low-intensity exercise at burning fat calories. Regardless, high-intesity exercise always wins the race at burning more total fat calories in the end.\n\nCalories are an important consideration since you need to be in a daily calorie deficit to lose weight. Low-intesity walking typically burns a greater percentage of fat calories than running. For example, say you walk for 60 minutes and burn 300 total calories. The percentage of fat burned for energy usually averages about 70%. When you take 70% of 300 this means you've burned 210 fat calories. BUT jogging burns average 40% of calories from fat, so if you jogged the same duration (60 min) then you'll have burned likely over 600 calories. If 40% of those come from fat, that's 240 calories. So even though you're burning a lower percentage of fat calories when you jog, it is still a greater amount of fat calories and total calories in the end which helps maintain a daily calorie deficit and accordingly a greater chance at weight loss.\n\nThe problem with high-intesity exercise is that it's typically harder mentally and physically so it's difficult to keep up with it unless you program yourself and commit to a tough workout every week. Age and health are also factors. My best advice is to alternate low-intesity and high-intensity to avoid burn out and make workouts more enjoyable and varied. I train this way as do all my clients with excellent results.\n\nHope that gives you a better overview on this subject.\n\nIn the meantime try these useful calculators to assess calorie consumption, and energy expenditure:\n\nTotal Energy Expenditure:\nhttp://www.preventdisease.com/healthtools/articles/bmr.html\n\nCalories burned through various activies:\nhttp://www.preventdisease.com/healthtools/tools.html#cbva\n.\n.

Jumping rope is one of the best exercises you can do to tone your whole body and burn calories. 10 minutes each time is fine if you're just looking to burn calories, you will burn the same amount if you do two ten minute sessions as if you did the full twenty minutes. However, if you're doing it for cardio benefits you are better off going the full twenty minutes as you will not get heart benefits from the two ten minute sessions.

Let's do some maths to see if it's technically possible.\n1) 1 pound of fat = 3500 calories\n2) Assuming you weigh 155lbs and walk at 3mph; at this rate you'll burn = 246 calories per hour.\n3) To lose 10 pounds; you need = 3500x10/246 = 142.3 hours\n4) Average hours per day  = 142.3/15 = 9.48 hrs each day for 15 days.\nWell it's possible! The choice is yours to make. If you can add more weight to your backpack while walking will raised the expenditure of calories and shorten the time needed. Walking is by far the most efficient way to lose fat when you weigh against any human endurance limits. Jogging or running although uses more energy but it is physically impossible to do it for many. How nice if only you've more time to spare instead of 15 days.

Sure- you can lose 10 pounds in a day if you really want to, (boxers, and other athletes do this all the time to make weight), but it will not really affect your overall appearance.  Losing weight safely and effectively takes work and time- realistic goals of burning fat (sparing muscle tissue) should be limited to about 2 lbs per week.  Anything more than this is not healthy and could be dangerous.  Every pound of fat equals 3500 calories.  So for example, if you can cut 3500 calories from your diet in a week, and burn 3500 more in exercise, you will be able to lose 2 pounds of fat in a week.  There are other factors, but these are good guidelines to set a basis.  OK- 2 lbs per week * 8 weeks (your 2 months) is one pound more than you need, but it wont be easy.  Lots of exercise, water, and eating several small meals throughout the day is key.  Doesn't matter what kind of cardio you do, just start burning those calories.

It depends on your weight.\nhttp://www.nutritiondata.com/calories-burned.html

This is one of the most underrated exercises a person can do.  You are working on endurance, balance and cardio.\n\n15 minutes of jump rope equals 60 minutes of a high cardio step class or jogging.\n\nIf you do 15 minutes of running/jogging and then 5 minutes of jump rope (and do this cycle at least 3 times) you will be burning the optimal calories for exercise.\n\nThere is no real calorie measure it completly depends on how fast you are jumping (or how high) and your current health.

The walking does not get the metabolic rate up enough so it won't be high for the next  couple of hours. Do powerwalking (walking as fast as you can). It is low impact. The reason for this is when you are doing nothing you are still burning some calories. So the walking does not bring it up high enough above this rate of what you burn just watching.

It depends "how" you are burning these calories. Every person has a BMR (basal metabolic rate) which indicates how many calories your body will burn daily. This is also usually the daily recommended calorie intake for the individual. For example, my BMR is 1418 calories, and I burn 425 calories from digestion and processing food. Thus, I am to eat 1418 calories a day to MAINTAIN my weight, my body will not "hold on" to these calories. To lose weight, you must burn more than you consume.\n\nIf you are working out and burning 1000 calories, this is a bit on the high side. It also depends on the intensity of the activity, your average heart rate, your diet, and your weight and fitness level! And be careful, what the machines at the gym tell you is usually not accurate (if this is where you are getting the information from) and you should take the calorie values as an estimate. You will usually burn 10-20% less than what the machine displays. Sad, I know :(

Many experts say that if you walk 30 minutes a day at a brisk pace you can remain fit.  Some walk 60 minutes every other day.  Walking more may help burn off excess calories to get fit while it takes less walking to remain well toned.

You will burn more calories with a HR of 165. But if you are talking fat loss you will also burn more fat with a HR of 165. Note that your body greatly changes when you are exercising during fatigue. For example do a spin class and then run moderately for 30 minutes after you will see faster results.\n\nYou can get scientific but I won't bore you cause in reality it's get mathematics and doesn't work out. But in reality everyone is totally different. Take me for example I work out 6 days a week up to 9 sessions. I burn more body fat & weight during exercises that are high in intensity.  \n\nWhat you are asking is fat not weight so in theory the harder you train the bigger difference you will see so in essence the higher the heart rate the more fat you will burn.

According to recent studies, the average 175-pound person can expect to use somewhere in the neighborhood of 150 - 200 calories during 30 - 45 minutes of sex. Of course, this estimate will vary by amount of movement and vigor, as well as by type of sex. Most burn around 100 calories.

THE BEST WORKOUT MACHINE BY FAR IS THE ELLIPTICAL TRAINER. YOU CAN BURN 100 CALORIES IN 8 MINUTES. NO JOKE. I RIDE THE ELLIPTICAL FOR 40 MINUTES, 6 DAYS A WEEK. IT'S AN AWESOME WORK-OUT.

Cycling, like all exercises, burn calories. Cycling burns approximately 400 calories per hour (9 mph). It will help in trimming your waist, as well as your whole body, with the right diet.
