What's the best exercise besides running?I know swimming is for one but does it burn the same calories as running per hour?

I feel going for long brisk walks is simple but effective exercise. Then one can jog, do workouts on the steps, cardio, aerobics and also try yoga. Some yoga asanas with correct posture and breathing pattern is also very helpful. Then doing kick boxing and playing sports like tennis also can burn lot of calories.

I love bowling and work out at the gym. I feel great after sweating it out though I do not know how many calories were depleted.

It's been ages since I last bowled but I really enjoy bowling too.And gym-ing is something I do often but not since last week.Been sick in bed.Sigh.When I'm on the elyptic for an hour,I burn about 250 calories.and one hour on the treadmill at 7.0km/h burns 400 calories.thanks naka!

I walk and I ride my bike. One has to be persistent. I do not want to loose weight. I do not look at the calories burning. I just want the exercise. Happy mylotting.
