Can walking right after you eat help you loose weight?

Answer 1

Studies have shown that while power-walking may burn more calories, walking slowly actually burns fat. Why? When you "power walk" your body has to produce energy quickly ... to do this it goes to the glycogen stored in cells for energy. When you walk slowly, your body does not have to produce energy quickly, so it goes to fat cells for energy to burn.

So, for cardio health, and to burn calories, walk fast. To burn fat, walk slow. You could alternate days (one fast day, one slow day), or if you have the time to dedicate, do slow walking in the morning, fast walking in the evening (or vice versa).

Here is what you need to do, if you are serious about losing weight and keeping it off. Eat 6 small meals a day about every 4 hours. Here what that will do for you, your metabolism will increase (i.e. Loose weight) and you will have more engry. If you go on a diet and eat less, your metabolism will slow down and store to fat. That is why diets dont work. Only the size of your fist, carbs (examples:baked potato, pasta, oatmeal, beans, corn, melon, apples, fat free yogurt, whole wheat breads)in one and protien (examples:chicken breast, swordfish, shrimp, turkey breast) in the other. You can also eat vegetables and salads with any meal, they dont have none or little fat). 30min cardo exercise every day. Any of these(examples: walking, jogging, swimming,running, biking, ect), Monday cardo, tues upper body (arms: curls, tricep extensions,pull ups, front press)(abdominals: leg pull crunch, leg raises), (chest: bench press, butterfly, pullover)(shoulders: front press, arm pullover, cross county skier machine)(back:seated row, lat pull downs, back extension)(YOU DONT HAVE TO DO IN ONE DAY, mix it up) wed cardo, thurs lower body (legs: leg pull,leg press, squats, lounges) fri cardo, sat upper. Sunday eat anything you want and dont exercising, you do this on sunday so your body doesnt go into starvation mode. YOU NEED TO TAKE SUNDAY OFF. If you stilck with this you will have a great body. also drink aleast 8oz of water daily! Stay away from Mcdonals, Wendys, ect because there is nothing good for you on the menu's even the salads are bad (beaon bits, cheeze, dressing, ect) Good Luck :)

Yes, as a matter of fact, walking at any time helps you lose weight! This was my beginning into the fitness business, I started walking after dinner every night, and saw what it did, and after awhile I started other things, now am a fitness director/personal trainer/aerobic instructor! Watch out you may like it too! lol

Answer 4

Walking can definitely help you lose weight...if you walk before you eat, you'll get the slight benefit of your metabolism being a bit "up" when you do eat...the more briskly you walk, the more calories you'll burn...

So hit the pavement whenever you can and walk off those unwanted pounds!

Yep. Although you may want to weight for your food to degest a little. People have been known to get cramps when they exercised right after they ate. Anyways, walking is a good form of exercise. exspecially if your power-walking, then you'll really be burning calories.
