Exercise on a Regular Basis is an Important Part of Staying Healthy and Weight Control



Regular Exercise is an Important Part of Staying Healthy and Maintaining a Healthy Weight

A recent study 'A 45-minute vigorous exercise bout increases metabolic rate for 14 hours' suggests that the extra calories burned during exercises are not only burned while doing the exercise. Researchers found that up to an additional 37% of extra energy was used in the hours following the exercise. 

An Series of Two Days of Examples for What Happened

Day 1 you rested and did not exercise. Day 2 if you ran for 45 minutes and burned 560 calories during the run, over the next 14 hours your resting metabolic rate would be higher from the exercises compared to Day1 with no exercise. This increase results in more calories burned during rest. Over the next 14 hours of Day 2 your body could burn up to 207 more calories at rest compared to Day 1. This study suggests regular exercise can help raise your body’s metabolism to control and maintain one’s weight.
