Exercising helps you burn calories and get rid of the excess fat your body has. In this article, you’ll find out the answer to this popular question: Where does fat go? Your body needs fuel to function. Whether it’s for doing a set of push-ups or for making your heart beat, it requires fats and carbohydrates to act as fuels for its day to day operations.
