Running For Weight Loss
Wednesday, February 17th, 2010Author: Mohd Hizer Hasan
The reason many people start running is because they want to lose weight fast. Running is an excellent cardiovascular activity because you can burn as much as 300 calories when you run for 30 minutes. A simple formula to calculate how much calories you burn after your running session is to multiply your distance in kilometer with your weight in kilogram with 1.04.

80kg x 2km x 1.04 = 166.4 calories burned

I’ve always been more of the “sofa athlete” than actual athlete, but beginning in my mid-30’s, I realized that not only had I retained all of my high school fat, but over the years, those fat cells had made many friends, and they were all beginning to congregate in the most unappealing places.
