Baseball: Get Fit, Burn
Fat
Fitness and Fat-Burning
Combined
Playing baseball is a reasonable
way to boost fitness and burn stored body fat. Baseball increases the
number of calories burned, and - if combined with a calorie-controlled
diet plan - will cause the body to burn fat - including abdominal fat.
In addition, baseball helps to develop the arm and chest muscles, so you
get fit and get into shape.
Baseball Improves Fat Percentage
About 45 minutes of baseball
burns about 315 calories. In one year, this daily fitness workout burns
a total of 111,975 calories per year - about 33 pounds of stored body
fat. This fat-burning improves the body's fat-percent - the muscle-to-fat
ratio.
Baseball: Fat-Burning Health
Benefits
Because it helps to burn
body-fat, a regular fitness workout (like baseball) contributes to improved
health in several ways. It helps reduce abdominal fat, associated with
serious illness; it assists weight control, thus maintaining normal cholesterol
levels and blood pressure. Finally, it releases endorphins the
happiness chemicals that improve mood. These health benefits are further
increased by a healthy eating-plan.
