Calories Vs. Physical Activity

Calories vs. Physical Activity

My employer offers a video, healthy living series and here are my notes on this topic. Any misinformation is the fault of the note taker.

World health organization suggests we have 150-300 moderate minutes per week. Or 75-150 vigorous exercise per week
Moderate exercise is when you are breathy but you can hold a conversations.
Vigorous exercise is when you are breathless. It is hard to maintain a conversation.
Everyone physical activity is different and moderate to vigorous exercise is different.
Moderate may be a brisk walk, dancing, hiking, playing doubles tennis or pushing a lawnmower or roller blading
Vigorous exercise is jogging, running, swimming lap, biking up hill, playing soccer when our are running around or jumping rope.
On weight loss, think of calories in, not calories out. Diet and exercise got hand in hand.
What you eat affects what weight goals you have.
People start exercise they start feeling more hunger. We need to make wise decision when we eat.
Burring calories depend on your body size. The suggestions re based on a150 lb person.
Grilled chicken for 150 for 3 oz. fried chicken is 210 calories for 1 fried chicken 3 oz. Yom would need to do 12 stories of steps to burn off the different between the two chickens.
Do you want cheese? It is nice calories for a slice of Swiss cheese. You would have to jump rope for 7 min to compensate for that calorie choice.
A New York slice of pizza is about 400 calories. Instead of taking a second slice, go for the side salad. It would take about 60 min of brisk walking to cut off the calories for the second 400-calorie slice.
Ice cream. A waffle cone would be 150 calories. You would need to work in the garden for 30 min to match the calories of that sugar cone.
French fries: A small order is 230 calories. It would take 45 min of kayocking to burn those calories.
The goal is to spend less time sanitary or sitting at your desk. Stand while you can.
Sixty min of yoga can cut 180 calories. Work on being more active. It is recommended that we have 150-300 moderate minutes per week per week or 75-150 vigorous exercise per week.
