Why did this problem occur?
There are several reasons.
- A lot of ready-made, processed foods have appeared in our diet.
- Sweet carbonated water and delicious desserts have become the norm.
- Working at a computer, lack of physical housework thanks to modern household appliances, traveling by car. Technological progress has given us comfort and extra weight as a bonus.
Now we have to do something with this “bonus”.
Have you decided to lose weight? Congratulations. The first step has already been taken. There is intention, but it is not enough.
Weight loss occurs when a person expends more energy than he consumes. This is called a negative energy balance. The body uses up energy reserves, starting with fat, to make up for the deficiency.
But it is worth considering that a person with a small amount of fat will spend more muscle tissue. This can lead to further health problems, including:
- high risk of osteoporosis
- decrease in muscle mass
- problems regulating body temperature
- weakened immune system
Table of human energy consumption for various types of activities
Do you want to know how many calories you spend working, for example, as a bartender? Or how much energy do you use when working around the house or plowing the garden?
Our table of human energy consumption will help you with this. Of course, different types of physical activity use our body’s energy differently. Accordingly, the same time spent on different types of physical activity will yield different effectiveness.
In the table below you can easily find out how many calories you burned, depending on two factors:
- type of physical activity,
- the time during which you were physically active.
Advice from Kostya Shirokaya: use the search Ctrl + F. This way you can open the search bar in your browser and enter the type of physical activity you are interested in. If the type of physical activity you have chosen is in the list, it will be highlighted in a separate color, and to the right of it will be the number of calories burned per minute.
Next, you need to calculate the number of calories burned: multiply the activity coefficient by your weight and the duration of physical activity
For example, a person weighing 80 kg in 30 minutes. intense aerobics will spend: 0.123 x 80 (kg) x 30 (min) = 295.2 calories.
PS you have no idea how many calories we spent while creating this table manually in html
