Your body is constantly burning calories for fuel, whether you're standing up, sitting down, or sleeping. You can speed up the process by exercising (especially cardiovascular exercise, such as running, swimming, biking, Spinning, skiing, ect.) You will be burning far more calories during a hard run, then when you are sleeping. Depending on the type of cardio you are doing, and how hard you are pushing yourself, you could burn up to 600 (and over) calories in an hour. Another way to burn more calories is to build your muscles with weight-bearing exercises. Muscles need calories, so the more muscle you have, the more calories you will be burning all day long.
