What’s the best exercise?

It’s apparently a myth that strenuous exercise helps you lose weight. After about an hour of intensive working out you probably burn off around 200 calories; about one slice of bread and butter.

It’s also a myth that more intensive exercise is better. This type of exercise burns sugar, when you actually want to be burning fat. An energetic walk would be better. This was proven in a study or 173 overweight women. Half did moderate exercise, and half did vigorous exercise. The half that did the moderate exercise had lost more weight and had lower body fat levels than the vigorous exercise group.

So the best forms of exercise are things like walking, swimming, gentle aerobic exercise or pilates or yoga. It’s never too late to start either. One trial got women as old s 78 into the gym for the first time, and another went up to 85. Both studies showed that the women improved their posture, bone health and stability, which means they were less likely to fall and suffer serious injury.
