These are the sports that burn the most calories

By Bussiness Insider To watch video go to http://www.businessinsider.com/sports-burn-most-calories-running-tennis-soccer-taekwondo-flag-football-basketball-athlete-exercise-2017-4 Sports are a great way to get in some exercise. And while burning calories isn't the only measure of an exercise's value, the number can tell you something about how hard you're working your body. The important caveat here is that exercising on its own actually doesn't do much to make you lose weight. Sports get your heart going, which can help you live longer. But if you want to slim down, we suggest talking to a doctor about what a healthy weight is for you and working on cutting sugar and large portions out of your diet. Still, keeping track of calories burned per hour is a good measure of how intense a particular exercise is. The Mayo Clinic, drawing on research published by the National Institutes of Health, lists 36 popular forms of exercise by their caloric impacts. We've ordered the sports on that list from least to most intense, with approximate calories burned per hour for a 200-pound person listed for each activity. (An average adult American weighs just under 200 pounds.) We also calculated the value for one other sport, soccer, based on the root NIH data and included it on this list. Keep in mind that the numbers here are approximate. Also, just because an exercise burns calories faster doesn't mean it's necessarily the best option. The best exercise is the one you enjoy enough to get up and do regularly

Will expose who made Rs10b offer in court: Imran Khan

By Express Tribune ISLAMABAD: Welcoming Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s challenge to file a defamation suit, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chief Imran Khan publicly said he would reveal the names of the individuals who offered him Rs10 billion on behalf of the Sharif family to back off from the Panamagate case only in court. He was addressing a public gathering at the Parade Ground on Friday. Workers who converged at the Parade Ground came from Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab, who according to political analysts and newsmen, were well above 30,000.
