Probably everyone who trains has already wondered which exercises burn the most calories. “Soccer burns more calories than golf, for example. There are, yes, activities that make you spend more energy than others”, says physical trainer Amanda Biuger (@amandabiuger).

However, some variables influence (and a lot) the amount of fuel you will use. Exercise intensity is one of them. “In general, aerobics tend to burn more calories during exercise. Strength training, on the other hand, tends to burn more in a resting state, that is, after exertion. However, the intensity with which one or the other is performed will interfere with this expense”, she explains.

In addition, your body structure also counts. This is because individuals with higher percentages of muscle mass tend to burn more calories (even at rest).
