A member asked:
Does walking at normal speed (a little faster than strolling) helps lose calories? or does only brisk walking burns calories?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Burn baby burn...: All activity your body performs burns calories. Even thinking about burning calories, burns calories. It's just that some activities burn more than others.
