Find out how many calories you're burning
HELLO! Online gives you the lowdown on how many calories you can burn from doing different exercises, including walking and yoga, for one hour based on a female who weighs 140 pounds (10 stone).
Running
Running is a cheap and effective way to get into shape. If you run at 7.5 mph, you can burn a staggering 833 calories.
Walking
If you're after more of a low impact exercise, walking can still be beneficial. A moderate pace of 3 mph will help you burn 220 calories.
Cycling
Cycling is a good way to get some fresh air, tone up and can also be a great family activity. A moderate pace (12-13.9 mph) will burn off 533 calories.
Swimming
This is a minimum low-impact sport that works the entire body and can provide dramatic results. Just a slow place of 50 yards per minute of front crawl will burn off 533 calories.
Zumba
Combining simple dance moves with a hypnotic Latin beat, Zumba is more popular than ever. A total body workout, it can burn 500 calories per hour.
Yoga
While comparatively low in its effectiveness at burning calories – 175 for the hatha method — yoga targets mind, body and soul.
