It is very approximate but one pound of fat
equals about 3500 calories. So to lose about a pound of weight in a week you
would need to reduce your calorie intake and/or increase your exercise. For
example, you could exercise off 300 calories a day and drop 200 calories from
your food intake and if you did this for 7 days, you should lose a pound.
This will depend on your weight, the amount of time you exercised, and the intensity. I weigh 190 pounds and usually jump rope for 1hour at an intensive speed . I usually burn about 1035 calories a workout. At a slower pace, I would only burn 690 calories. My workout buddy weighs 150 and usually burns about 730 calories in 1hour.
