Hi Guys...
I cant seem to get anyone to answer this question straight so I thought i'd open it up in here for discussion.
I have just had a "test" at the gym which tells me body fat percentage/metabolism rate etc.
Apparently my body needs 1600 calories a day to maintain my weight as I am lightly active.
I am eating between 12-1300 a day obviously as I am losing weight.
My BIG question is this.....
If I am eating 1300 a day then I go to the gym (which i do 4 times a week) and burn roughly 500 calories, does that reduce my calorific intake to 7-800? or am I burning calories from my fat storage (which I still have plenty of lol)
I have tried to google this, ask the gym but so far nothing.....
Piink - you do an enormous amount of exercise, have you any ideas?
Thanks!!
