Consistent aerobic exercise will help you change your body
composition by lowering your percentage of body fat. If
weight loss is a goal, combine an increase in the length of
your workouts with a moderate decrease in caloric intake. For
weight control, how long and how often you exercise is more
important than how hard you exercise.
Exercise four to five times a week.
Try to reach and maintain 60-75 percent of your
maximum heart rate with moderate exercise.
Exercise for 30-45 minutes at 60-65 percent of your
target heart rate.
Here are some tips to achieving your weight management goal:
Consume most of your dietary calories at breakfast and
lunch, and eat a light dinner. Do not eat close to
bedtime.
Exercise before meals. Moderate exercise will help
suppress your appetite.
Take exercise breaks throughout the day to help
increase metabolism (calorie expenditure).
