People always ask which exercises burn the most calories.
Here are the top three calorie-burning exercises to get your metabolic engine burning:

Running/Jogging: Running or jogging at a moderate to high intensity is one of the most effective exercises for burning calories. The exact number of calories burned depends on factors such as speed, distance, and individual weight, but running can burn a significant amount of calories per hour.

High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT): HIIT involves short bursts of intense exercise followed by brief periods of rest or lower-intensity exercise. This type of workout is highly effective for burning calories in a shorter amount of time compared to steady-state cardio exercises. HIIT workouts can include exercises like sprinting, jumping jacks, burpees, and high knees.

Cycling/Spinning: Cycling, whether outdoors or on a stationary bike, is an excellent calorie-burning exercise. It engages large muscle groups in the legs and can be done at various intensities to suit different fitness levels. Cycling at a vigorous pace can result in significant calorie expenditure.

These exercises are not only effective for burning calories during the workout but can also increase your metabolism, leading to continued calorie burning even after you’ve finished exercising.
