How many calories do you consume for one hour of jogging

The calorie consumption of jogging for one hour is usually between 300-600 calories, and the specific value is affected by factors such as weight, running speed, exercise intensity, age, and basal metabolic rate. Slow jogging belongs to moderate intensity aerobic exercise, and calorie expenditure is positively correlated with body weight. An adult weighing 60 kilograms jogging at a speed of 8 kilometers per hour consumes approximately 450 calories; A person weighing 80 kilograms can consume around 600 calories under the same conditions. For every 1 kilometer/hour increase in running speed, calorie consumption increases by about 10%. Slope running or intermittent variable speed running can significantly increase energy consumption, but it is important to control heart rate within the targeted range. Individual differences have a significant impact on calorie consumption. People with high muscle mass consume more energy during exercise, and long-term runners may experience a slight decrease in energy consumption due to metabolic adaptation. Women consume 50-100 fewer calories than men under the same conditions due to their lower basal metabolic rate. When the ambient temperature is too high or too low, the body will consume an additional 5-10% of calories to maintain body temperature. Wearing heart rate monitoring devices or sports wristbands can obtain personalized data.

It is recommended to accurately calculate the calorie deficit based on dietary records, and engage in 3-5 different intensity aerobic exercise combinations per week, combined with strength training to improve basal metabolic rate. Moderate hydration and electrolyte supplementation before and after exercise, avoiding vigorous exercise on an empty stomach or when full. Long term jogging can not only effectively reduce fat, but also improve cardiovascular function, regulate blood pressure and blood sugar. However, it is important to take gradual steps to prevent sports injuries.
