RIO Fitness Chicago® Tip:

1lb of body fat = 3500calories. Start aiming to burn at least 3500cal/week with exercise if you want to lose body fat. That does NOT mean doing endless cardio. If you do the machine will say you burned 1000cal, but after 30mins you are just burning cal from energy; over an hour you burn muscle. Calories are not all the same. It's the difference between skinny & flabby and lean & tone.
