Eating a healthy diet can help you maintain a calorie deficit, which helps promote weight loss. Similarly, exercising can contribute to this deficit and also help you shed pounds. The question that remains is, how long does it take to burn 1000 calories? While some believe this may take a day, others think it should take several days to weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n\n    <section class=\"ad-single-wrapper\">\n        <div class=\"ad-single-text ad-title-wrapper\">\n            <h3 class=\"ad-single-title\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Get_your_personalized\"><\/span>Get your personalized<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n            <span class=\"ad-single-sub-title color-green\">\n                <svg class=\"icon-sparkle\" width=\"36\" height=\"21\" viewBox=\"0 0 36 21\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n                    <path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\"\n                          d=\"M34.6837 0.515943C34.8247 0.835947 34.9421 1.16291 34.9891 1.48987C35.1417 2.64466 35.3179 6.51949 35.2592 7.29863C35.2592 7.53515 35.1887 7.7995 35.0243 8.01516C34.7307 8.39777 33.9791 8.4256 33.5681 8.07081C33.4154 7.94559 33.3215 7.77863 33.2745 7.61863C33.1453 7.15254 33.0396 6.68645 32.9809 6.22035C32.8165 4.81512 32.6638 3.40293 32.5581 1.9977C32.5229 1.53161 32.6051 1.05856 32.6991 0.592466C32.7695 0.244637 33.251 -0.0197144 33.6973 0.00115537C34.2257 0.0289818 34.5546 0.230723 34.6837 0.515943ZM18.6184 9.78225C18.5734 9.67557 18.5344 9.57528 18.4971 9.47956C18.4178 9.27568 18.3465 9.09257 18.2426 8.91267C16.7159 6.24133 14.2615 3.86217 11.4665 1.60128C11.1377 1.33693 10.7267 1.08649 10.2687 0.919531C10.0221 0.829095 9.52885 0.843009 9.247 0.933445C9.03562 1.00301 8.88295 1.27432 8.92992 1.42736C9.01213 1.71954 9.18828 2.01868 9.4349 2.28303C11.0555 4.02913 12.6879 5.76829 14.3437 7.50048C14.8308 8.0068 15.3395 8.50887 15.8473 9.01L15.8473 9.01001C15.9883 9.14921 16.1293 9.28833 16.2697 9.42746C16.4811 9.64311 16.7159 9.85181 16.9626 10.0466C17.2327 10.2692 17.6437 10.4014 18.0547 10.2553C18.0691 10.2501 18.0836 10.245 18.0981 10.2399C18.1097 10.2358 18.1213 10.2318 18.1329 10.2278C18.3785 10.1424 18.6184 10.0589 18.6184 9.78225ZM1.98942 20.1407C2.17783 20.1221 2.37674 20.105 2.58175 20.0875C2.99012 20.0525 3.42272 20.0154 3.84492 19.9598C6.34632 19.6259 8.84771 19.292 11.3374 18.9442C11.8776 18.8676 12.406 18.7355 12.8875 18.5824C13.5334 18.3807 13.7566 18.0954 13.6509 17.7824C13.5452 17.4694 13.1224 17.2746 12.3826 17.2676C11.8776 17.2607 11.3374 17.2676 10.8559 17.3372C7.69683 17.8102 4.5378 18.2972 1.3905 18.7911C1.03819 18.8468 0.674137 18.9442 0.404034 19.0833C-0.2771 19.4242 -0.065712 19.9598 0.803314 20.092C1.01858 20.1228 1.25262 20.1258 1.51135 20.1291C1.66195 20.131 1.82092 20.133 1.98942 20.1407Z\"\n                          fill=\"#17B991\"\/>\n                <\/svg>\n               meal plan!\n            <\/span>\n        <\/div>\n    \n        <div class=\"ad-single-text ad-desc-wrapper\">\n            <p class=\"ad-single-desc\">What's your main health goal?<\/p>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=How_Long_Does_It_Take_To_Burn_1000_Calories\" class=\"btn-ad btn-green\">Lose weight<\/a>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=How_Long_Does_It_Take_To_Burn_1000_Calories\" class=\"btn-ad btn-green\">Feel great<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n        <img class=\"ad-single-img\" alt=\"health-food\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"395\" height=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/themes\/gridlove-child\/assets\/img\/ad\/health-food.webp\">\n    <\/section>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Understanding how many calories you burn daily can help you stay with your <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/oat-smoothie-weight-loss\/\">weight loss<\/a> practice.

These predetermined points are used to indicate various activity levels include (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/319731#factors-influencing-daily-calorie-burn-and-weight-loss\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">):<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>1.2<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

The answer you get is the total number of calories you burn on average every other day. Let us use an example to illustrate this concept further.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take a 37-year old gentleman who is 6 feet tall and weighs 170 pounds. He is also moderately active. We will first calculate his BMR. It will involve applying the BMR formula calculation for men, which is: 66 + (6.2 x weight) + (12.7 x height) \u2013 (6.76 x age)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This will appear as follows: 66 + (6.2 x 170) + (12.7 x 72) \u2013 (6.76 x 37).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is stated that the guy in question is moderately active. So, we will award him 1.55 points as he ranks at this activity level. We will then take his BMR and multiply it by 1.55 to get his average daily calorie limit. The formula will be as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(66 + (6.2 x 170) + (12.7 x 72) \u2013 (6.76 x 37)) x 1.55 = 2,765 calories\/day<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&#038;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=How_Long_Does_It_Take_To_Burn_1000_Calories\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-36590 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Frame-5108-convert.io_-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"how long does it take to burn 1000 calories\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Frame-5108-convert.io_.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Frame-5108-convert.io_-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Frame-5108-convert.io_.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Frame-5108-convert.io_-1636x920.jpg 1636w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Frame-5108-convert.io_.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_It_Possible_To_Burn_1000_Calories\"><\/span><b>Is It Possible To Burn 1000 Calories?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, it is. Most beginners to either diet or exercise programs for <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/30-day-fat-burner-challenge\/\">weight loss<\/a> may view burning 1000 calories as tricky or unattainable. Truth be told, this limit is achievable if you do everything needed to help initiate such calorie loss.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You do not have to struggle to burn these calories only through diet and exercise. You can contribute to losing 1000 calories every day by also implementing other simple practices. They include (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/medlineplus.gov\/ency\/patientinstructions\/000894.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">):<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Taking the stairs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Whether you live or work on the 10th or 7th floor, take the stairs if you want to burn more calories. This will certainly take more time than using the elevator. However, it will help you reach your target of burning 1000 calories daily.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Sitting less<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. If you spend most of your time sitting down, change this norm and sneak in some breaks. During these breaks, you can stretch or take some brisk walks. It all depends on your schedule. You can also try working at a standing desk or alternating between sitting and standing.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Increasing your walking pace<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Whether you are in a rush or not, you can increase your walking pace to burn more calories.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Walking more<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Some people drive or take cabs to destinations that they could walk to. Although there is nothing wrong with this, walking to such destinations can help you burn some extra calories. So, start walking more if you get the opportunity. Sneaking in brisk walks will burn calories and eventually help you lose weight.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Read More:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/burn-1000-calories-a-day\/\">Burn 1000 Calories a Day: Fact or Fiction?

The reality is that walking can help you <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/lean-meats-for-weight-loss\/\">lose weight<\/a> as it triggers the fat-burning process. According to Medical News Today, regular walking can lead to fat loss and a reduction of waist circumference (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/325809\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Walking is classified as moderate aerobic activity. Typically, experts recommend that you get at least 150 minutes of such moderate aerobic activity every week (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/weight-loss\/in-depth\/exercise\/art-20050999\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). As mentioned earlier, the calories you burn will depend on individual factors such as your age and body size.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This means that the amount of time it will take you to lose 1000 calories while walking will be dependent on such factors. A 160-pound man walking at a speed of 3.5 mph for one hour can burn about 314 calories (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/weight-loss\/in-depth\/exercise\/art-20050999\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To burn 1, 000 calories, this man would be required to walk an extra 3 or 4 hours at the same pace. If he doesn\u2019t do this, the same result might mean walking for one hour at the same pace for the next four days to burn over 1000 calories.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&#038;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=How_Long_Does_It_Take_To_Burn_1000_Calories\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33358 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Frame-4859-1024x576.png\" alt=\"how long does it take to burn 1000 calories\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Frame-4859.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Frame-4859-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Frame-4859.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Frame-4859.png 1344w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Long_Does_It_Take_To_Burn_1000_Calories_Jogging_And_Running\"><\/span><b>How Long Does It Take To Burn 1000 Calories Jogging And Running?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As with walking, the calories you burn while <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/yoga-jogging\/\">jogging<\/a> will also depend on your age, body composition, and sex. The same also applies if you are running for weight loss. Since running tends to increase your heart rate more than jogging, you get to burn more calories while running.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Mayo Clinic, a man weighing 160 pounds and running at 5 mph for at least an hour will burn 606 calories (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/weight-loss\/in-depth\/exercise\/art-20050999\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). This means that if they were to maintain that speed and run for two hours, they would burn 1212 calories (606 + 606).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This case means that such an individual would need only two hours to burn 1000 calories. However, if they were tired, they would likely plan on running the following day, at the same speed and for the same duration. If this were the case, it would take them two days to burn 1000 calories. It\u2019s worth noting how long it takes you to lose 1000 calories is dependent on several factors. These include the intensity of your exercise, duration, and type of exercise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Intense sweat sessions, working weight loss tips, lip-smacking recipes come in one package with the BetterMe app. And all of it is at your fingertips, <a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&#038;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=How_Long_Does_It_Take_To_Burn_1000_Calories\">start transforming your life<\/a> now!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&#038;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=How_Long_Does_It_Take_To_Burn_1000_Calories\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33390 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4848.png\" alt=\"how long does it take to burn 1000 calories\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4848.png 960w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4848-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4848.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Long_Does_It_Take_To_Burn_1000_Calories_Swimming\"><\/span><b>How Long Does It Take To Burn 1000 Calories Swimming?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although most people swim for fun, it is in reality, an aerobic activity which can help you burn calories. We will continue with the former example to illustrate the calorie-burning process using the individual weighing 160 pounds (roughly 73 kgs).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Suppose this individual was to swim for one hour. In doing so, this person would burn approximately 423 calories. To lose an estimated 1000 calories through swimming, the individual would have to swim for an extra one and a half hours. As a result, they would get to burn 1, 057.5 calories (423 + 423 + 211.5).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calories_Burned_Lifting_Weights\"><\/span><b>Calories Burned Lifting Weights<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Weight lifting is also a great exercise to help you burn calories. The number of calories you burn with this exercise routine will also be influenced by your weight and exercise intensity. A person weighing 125 pounds and lifting weights for only 30 minutes will burn 90 calories (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/245588#:~:text=According%20to%20the%202015%2D2020,overall%20health%2C%20and%20activity%20level.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are targeting more than 1000 calories, this means that you will have to put in a lot of work. That might mean increasing your workout duration and intensity. However, it would be best if you were very cautious when it comes to weight lifting exercises. Combining weight lifting with other activities such as aerobic exercise is a more realistic way to burn a significant amount of calories.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although these exercises do help in increasing your muscle strength and mass, they can potentially be harmful. They may lead to injuries, knee pain, and fatigue (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/weight-training-best-success-less-is-more\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Always consult with a professional before and after starting a weight lifting program.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Bottom-Line\"><\/span><b>The Bottom-Line<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How long does it take to burn 1000 calories? It primarily depends on several factors. These include the type of exercise program you have chosen, the exercise duration, and intensity. You are more likely to burn 1000 calories if you are doing an intense routine for a longer period of time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can determine if you are burning 1000 calories each day by calculating the calories you could burn. All you need to make this calculation is your BMR and an understanding of your activity level.
