Aerobic Exercise and Weight Loss: A Positive Relationship

Aerobic exercise is a moderate activity that has to be sustained over a period of time, is rhythmic in nature and requires the use of large muscle groups. Its benefits range from reducing the incidences of heart-related diseases, cancer and diabetes. It improves psychological well being and yes! 

It helps lose weight. Aerobic exercise and weight loss share a positive relationship since the former loses you calories, helping you to achieve the latter.

How much energy you use when you exercise depends on your weight, the duration and effort taken to complete the exercise and of course, the actual activity! I shall list you the calories expended for 10 mis of different exercises assuming the participant is a 53 kg female. 

Playing tennis singles sets you back a measly 60 calories (bah!) and dancing away burns up 80 calories. Swimming the breast stoke comes in at a poor second, setting you back just slightly more at 90 calories whilst running is a sure winner with 113 calories. 

The relationship between aerobic exercise and weight loss is only true when you burn at least 300 calories per session.
