Can exercising every day help with weight loss

Exercising daily can usually help with weight loss, but it needs to be combined with dietary control to achieve the desired effect. The weight loss effect is mainly related to exercise intensity, duration, basal metabolic rate, and difference in calorie intake. Regular exercise can promote fat breakdown by increasing calorie consumption, while moderate to high-intensity aerobic exercise such as jogging and swimming can directly burn a large amount of calories. Strength training can increase muscle mass and thus improve basal metabolic rate. Adults who engage in 150-300 minutes of moderate intensity exercise or 75-150 minutes of high-intensity exercise per week, combined with a daily calorie deficit of 500-750 calories, can achieve the health goal of losing 0.5-1 kilogram per week. The excessive oxygen consumption effect generated after exercise can continue to burn calories for several hours. Relying solely on exercise without controlling diet may lead to poor weight loss results. A high calorie diet can easily offset exercise expenditure, and some people may increase their appetite after exercise and instead consume more calories. When there are metabolic problems such as thyroid dysfunction and insulin resistance, the weight loss effect of exercise may be limited. insufficient exercise intensity or short duration also make it difficult to form an effective heat gap.

It is recommended to adopt a combination of exercise and dietary management, choose exercise types that are suitable for one's own conditions, gradually increase intensity, and record daily diet to ensure reasonable calorie intake. Individuals with a larger body weight should start with low impact exercises to avoid joint injuries. If continuous exercise does not achieve the expected weight loss, you can consult a nutritionist to adjust your dietary structure or seek medical attention to check for metabolic diseases.
