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).
