How many pounds can you lose if you exercise every day for a month?
This is the program you need to follow to see results in your body.
It is known to everyone that exercise offers many health benefits and helps in weight loss.
But how many pounds will you lose if you exercise every day for a month?
The answer is not the same for everyone, because the exact loss depends on the type of training and your body weight.
On average, however, you will lose about 3 pounds per month.
Finding solutions to problems!
A good workout consists of aerobic exercise, which you can do for one hour each day and two days of weight training.
You need to burn 3,500 calories to lose half a kilo, assuming you don’t reduce your calorie intake.
Aerobic Exercise
Aerobic exercises such as walking don’t burn a lot of calories. But if you do swimming, jogging or aerobic exercise in groups, you can burn up to 500 calories per hour on average.
Endurance exercises
Exercises that improve muscle tissue help you burn about 218 calories. So if you adopt them on a monthly basis you may lose about 0.2 kg.
Diet
Diet plays the biggest role in losing pounds. Healthy weight loss is set at an average of 0.5-1.5 kg per week.
If 0.5kg corresponds to 3,500 calories, then you can divide this number by 7 days a week and aim to burn 500 more calories daily.
It should be noted that these numbers are for the average person. Weight loss is related to the size of one’s body.
The more body fat someone has, the more likely they are to lose weight safely even over two pounds a week.
