Exercise Weight Management

• Both endurance and strength exercise can raise MR
  during after exercise.
• Exercise helps avoid drop in RMR associated with
  weight loss.
• During low-intensity exercise, more energy comes
  from fat.
• During high-intensity exercise, more overall
  calories are burned (so more overall fat is
  burned).
• Moderate-intensity exercise is easier to maintain
  over the long term.
• Consider increasing intensity on one or two
  workouts each week to maximize post exercise fat
  burning.
