Jogging: Get Fit, Burn Fat
Fitness and Fat-Burning Combined
Jogging workouts are a good way to improve fitness and burn stored fat. Jogging increases the number of calories burned, and - if combined with a calorie-controlled eating plan - will cause the body to burn it's stored fat - including stomach fat. In addition, jogging helps to develop lean thigh muscles, so you get fit and get into shape.
Jogging Improves Fat Percentage
About 45 minutes of jogging burns about 473 calories. In one year, this daily fitness routine burns a total of 172,645 calories per year - about 49 pounds of stored body fat. This fat-burning improves the body's fat-percentage - the muscle-to-fat
ratio.
