How many calories do you burn riding four wheelers? |
I am really trying to loose weight as quick as possible! I walk 2.5-3 miles every other day and I bike the same amount every day in between and I havent lost a single pound! I have been doing this for over 2 months!!!! I eat healthy ABOSOLUTLY NO sweets, I only eat grilled meat like chicken, fish and ham, boiled and raw veggies, salad with NO dressing, NO bread, and ONLY water to drink. Whats wrong with me? PLEASE HELP ME. I can't afford to buy any diets or pills cuz right now I have no insurance do to switching jobs. PLEASE HELP ME!!! What else can I do? I know that riding four wheelers is a GREAT exercise because I went four wheeler riding and I ride on REALLY rough trails and creeks and I was more tired when I got back from four wheeler riding then I was when I go walking. I went four wheeler riding for approx. 5 hrs. Thanks for all your help. Please ignore the advice of the poster, because the advice was crazy, particularly the exercises. The bottom line is that you need to burn more calories than you consume. I would recommend that you buy a heart rate monitor to give you a better idea of the heart rate you are maintaining while you walk. The goal should be to roughly exercise for an hour a day at 70-80% of your maximum heart rate (look online for this, as it is a function of your age). While walking is good for your health, I think you will find that your heart rate does not get high enough for long enough in order to lose weight. As a result, you will likely need to consider cardio exercise that is a bit more vigorous. On the food front, it sounds like you are eating a lot of the right things. The other answer you received is ridiculous in terms of bread vs. chicken. Bread has something like 2000 calories per pound vs. about 600 calories per pound from chicken. Again, I think you need a more objective measure of what you are eating. You should right down what you eat every day, including how much and when you eat. After that, you should look online at one of the many calorie counters available, or consult with a dietician, to analyze what you are eating. It might be that you are eating the right things, but that your portion sizes are too large or you are eating too much meat and not enough vegetables. Most fruits and vegetable are less than 200 calories per pound. If you are mostly eating fish and meat with 600-800 calories per pound, then you are not going to lose weight. Your diet should probably contain no more than 3-5 ounces a day of lean meat and fish and lost of fruits and vegetables. Also, you should consider adding more whole grains (e.g. brown rice, etc.) and low fat milk products to your diet. In summary, think about more strenuous exercise and looking more closely at your diet. U said u walk 2.5-3 miles each day and ur diet includes chicken. Well then u'll nevr lose!! chicken has lots of fat. u walk 2 kms daily and u lose upto 10 cals. If not then go for jogging. Stop eating chiken! Bread is better than that. An exercise I would suggest: Lay down on the floor- do spread a sheet of some thick cloth on the florr(like towel or a bedsheet)- then put both ur hands by ur side and try to pull up ur legs- straight- as much u can pull- do this for 5-8 times and then increases the no. as days go on. u can also do push- ups. And very imp thing---- be patient! It would take atleast a month And I would suggest even if u have got money do not spend on stupid PILLS- 1stly it doesnt work. and if it works it might have some side effects.......!! Riding on a 4 wheeler will barely help u reduce 5-6 cals. Good Luck Sneha.[:)] Graffitti, Fat reducing book, self experience |
