Walking is the easiest way to burn more calories, but if you feel you don’t have time to embark on a walking fitness campaign, try adding a few steps into your normal daily routine.
One way to burn extra calories is to park your car a manageable distance from shop entrances and walk briskly around the shopping center. Be conscious of adding more steps where able and a pedometer can be extremely helpful in keeping track of the steps you have taken each day. Aim to take 10,000 steps every day.
Another great way to burn more calories is to take the stairs instead of the elevator. Of course, it is not always practical to do this if you have to travel many floors up or down, but you can always walk several flights, catch the elevator a few more, then finish off by walking up the last few flights. Before you know it you will be burning more calories and feeling fitter.

Looking for the best exercise to shred calories and help you reach your weight-loss goal? Running and rollerblading top the charts — but there are at least a half-dozen other physical activities that can burn over 500 calories per hour.
One pound equals 3500 calories. That means to lose weight, you have to reduce the number of calories in your regular diet or burn calories through exercise. But both is the best of all! A commitment to a combination of eating fewer calories and burning calories through physical activity is the most effective weight loss plan.
If you reduce your caloric intake by 500 per day, and if your daily workout burns 500 calories, you will theoretically lose two pounds per week – a safe amount of weight to lose in a week.
Knowing the calories burned by your favorite exercise as well as others can help you design the most effective workout regimen for your fitness and weight-loss goals. Mix up your workouts and give a different mode of exercise a try – not only will the variety help you burn calories but it will keep you motivated to keep working out.
