Calorie Counters for Bodybuilding
Posted by Mike
Basically, anything that counts calories is a calorie counter! If you have access to a calorie counter, you will have a much easier time developing a weight loss plan. Calorie counters are used to calculate calories in foods or calories burned through exercise. It may be a book in which you look up the number of calories in foods or a software program that takes numbers you provide and calculates how many calories you have burned through exercise or how many calories you should be eating on a diet.
You can add up how many calories you eat each day by keeping a record of everything you eat and looking up each food and portion size in a calorie and fat counters book. There are many books that list the calorie contents of commonly used foods and portion sizes. There are even calorie and fat counters for mixed dishes and popular fast foods. Many restaurants have calorie and fat counters on their websites as well.
You can also use a calorie, carb and fat counter to calculate how many calories you need in a day to maintain your weight or to lose weight. Or you can determine how many calories you burn exercising.
To use these calories, carb and fat counters, you often have to provide values, such as your current weight and height, the intensity of the activity, and the amount of time you spend doing it. This kind of counter for calories is often a computer program and available online, but you can count calories yourself if you have access to the appropriate formulas and charts.
