More on Calorie Burning
Yesterday my post discussed how to calculate your resting metabolic rate. Today I want to share with you additional information on the subject from an article in The Washington Post. This article goes beyond the resting metabolic rate calculation to discuss other ways we burn calories. The author states:
In a typical day, you burn calories four ways:
1. Basal metabolic rate (BMR), or calories used when sedentary.
2. Thermal effect of feeding (TEF), or calories burned digesting food.
3. Physical activity (anything you do besides sitting: walking, piano playing, shadow boxing).
4. Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC), that oft-hyped afterburn from a workout.
The article goes on to provide an example to show the reader how these four calorie-burning components can make or break weight loss.
