sweating and calorie burn question

zoombie_bear

When I started working-out, I sweated bullets and now with the same effort or heck even more I barely break a sweat and it's harder and hard to burn over 300-350cal for 1h wk-out, I wear a HRM with chest strap. I still know I've worked my *kitten* off, I huff and puff and want to die afterwards, lol. I've tried and change my wk-outs regularly and I wk-out daily 45-1h max.
Weight wise, down 75lbs since January2011... I'm down in the 120range, I used to sweat tones more when I heavier, could the fat loss be responsible of the sweating portion? just looking to know why? What is a good daily calorie burn also, I'm aiming for 300min, but just looking to know.... thanks for your reply...

your body weight is less, and your heart is more healthy. Yes, unfortunately it happens that you burn less because youdon'thave to work as hard to do the same exercise. If you have upped the intensity, what kind of exercise are you doing? I find that strange that you can't burn over 350 in 1 hour. Are you running? zumba? cycling? Try some super intensity spinning or running. and sweating, yeah that depends on temperature in/outside, and yes you sweat more at a higher body weight. but that's no big deal.

I did insanity & asylum, sweated like crazy, don't as much anymore sweat, basement summer months.
Did the 30DS JM double reotines same things with her
Doing other of the dvd's double wk-out & barely breaking a sweat, cooler temperatures 275-325cal/hr

Running gets me going 325cals/hr
Zumba started a class & all depends of the room temperature, if it's hot then I sweat, if it's cool not so much, but get 425cal/hr
