Wouldn’t it be great if you knew exactly what the most effective ways to burn calories were?
Well, now you can – and your best option is to attend a Zumba class.
Just 30 minutes of the intense dancing regime helps to burn 339 calories – enough to burn off those fries from McDonald’s.
But if you think you’ll struggle to cope with its demands, there’s plenty of other options you could try your hand at.
A half-hour session of spin, where your body is pushed to its maximum, can remove 270 calories – the equivalent of cheeseburger from Burger King.
Average statistics for eight forms of exercise completed by a 12st 2lbs woman (170lbs) were compiled by Fix.
They claim that strength training, barre – a training method for Ballerinas – and aerobics are all good options for those trying to shed the pounds.
And body pump, a mixture of aerobic exercise and weightlifting, will burn 209 calories – that of three KFC Hot Wings.
However, if you think you’re more suited to something a bit less intense, yoga could be the right option.
The ancient form of exercise that focus on flexibility, breathing and strength, will burn off 96 calories during the designated time-frame.
While it is believed Pilates, which is conducted to improve core strength, rids your body of the same amount.
But the guidelines aren’t strictly accurate, experts warn, as it completely depends on how hard you work.
