Lose Weight with Fun Exercise

By Linda Yo

 

When I turned 40 a few days ago, I made my husband take me dancing, because we haven’t danced in years! I had a lot of fun dancing that night and I think I burned at least 600 calories!  If you live in San Diego and you like dancing or you want to learn how to dance, check out this place: www.dancetime.com. You don’t need a partner to join. 

 

If you are not in San Diego, simply Google the word dance and the city you live in; that’s how I found dance time. My husband and I love the place, it’s a clean and safe place to learn and explore dancing.

 

Do you have an activity that you love to do? It’s easier to exercise when it’s fun. This is a list of fun exercises and the average calories burned per hour for someone who is 200 lbs.

 

Basketball, 728

Bicycling (leisure), 364

Dancing, 409

Bowling, 273

Canoeing, 319

Fishing, 350

Football, 728

Gardening, 380

Golf, 410

Hiking, 546

Racquetball, 637

Skiing (downhill), 455

Tennis, 728

Volleyball, 364

 

Activity for children

 

A study from a professor at Liverpool John Moores University in Britain found that participants burn about 150 calories per hour playing Nintendo Wii so an average of 12.2 playing time/week burned 1,830 extra calories per week.

 

Have you ever played tennis in Wii? It’s a lot of fun.  When my family get together with some friends, the adults and the kids spend hours playing tennis or bowling. It’s a great party activity.
