How to balance calories in with calories out.
Balancing calories is a fairly simple process.
To basically stay the same weight you need to burn off the same number of calories through the activities that you do as the food you take in. If you eat more calories that you burn then not surprisingly that excess energy is stored as fat, something that none of us want and before you know it those excess calories over the weeks, months and years are there to stay and are much more difficult to shift.
Here’s a simple equation in working out what you need to do: simply take your bodyweight in kilos and multiply this figure by 29 to get your resting metabolic rate (RMR). This is the amount of energy or calories that you need to go about your everyday business of sleeping, eating, working, watching TV, etc.
Now add the number of calories you might burn through some kind of form exercise like running, walking, skipping, swimming etc. As an example an average person might burn approximately 200 to 250 calories through 30 minutes of cardio training or intensive resistance exercise like weight training.
The total is the approximate number of calories you can eat in a day if you don’t want to put on weight and obviously if you’d like to lose some weight eat fewer calories per day.
It’s a very simplistic yet accurate method of calculating your energy in versus your energy out and doesn’t take that much effort either.
Give it a try and let me know how you get.
