Different exercises burn different amounts of calories. For example, high-intensity exercises like running or cycling can burn more calories per minute than lower-intensity exercises like walking or yoga. Understanding how many calories you burn with different activities helps you plan your exercise routine.

The Importance of Cardiovascular Exercise:

Cardiovascular exercise, such as running, swimming, or cycling, increases heart rate and calorie burn, making it an effective way to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight.

Strength Training and Muscle Building:

While strength training doesn’t burn as many calories during the activity itself, it helps build muscle mass, which increases your resting metabolic rate (RMR) and overall calorie expenditure throughout the day.
