I'm addicted to the wonderful feedback that I get from posting on these boards. I have a hrm and I burn approximately 300 calories for a 45 minute workout. That doesn't seem like a whole lot since I see that some folks burn around 600 when they workout. Am I not doing enough?? Thanks!

    Do you mind me asking what kind of exercising you are doing?

    Your weight will also affect your burn, so if you have heavier friends, don't be surprised or feel intimidated if they're burning more than you :)

    I change up my exercise. Sometimes I do an exercise video (power 90 or Leslie Sansone Walk/Kick, etc.), sometimes I do walk/run intervals on the treadmill, walk outside, or do strength training at home. I never burn very many when doing strength training. I am 148 lbs. and 5'3' tall -- 33 years old. Thanks again!
