Fat Burning Workout?

I would think that any exercise burns calories. I checked out a website and here are the number of calories burned per hour for a couple different exercises. These are for a person who weighs 155 lbs. Fast Jump Roping - 844 calories/hour Run @ 7min/mile pace - 985 calories/hour Leisurely Swim - 425 calories/hour Vigorous Frestyle - 700 calories/hour Regular Fly - 775 calories/hour So if you do a leisurely swim 3 times per week for an hour you are expending roughly 1,300 calories. If you instead do fly you might burn somewhere around 2,300 calories per week. I am not sure how many calories you need to burn in order to lose 1, 5 or 10 pounds. Of course diet plays a role as well. Here is the link if you want to look at how many calories each form of exercise burns: www.nutristrategy.com/activitylist3.htm
