Can anyone tell me the difference between Roller Blading (Inline skating) and skating, Roller (rollerblading, roller blading) on the exercise list? If you chose the first option, at my weight I burn 1164 calories in 60 minutes, and if I chose the second, I burn 669 in 60 minutes.

    always go with the lower number on these issues

    Both sound high to me. I think i would go with the second to be safer.

    I used to do in-line skating when I was younger. The difference is, in-line skating you are doing things such as grinding on a pole, or going up and down ramps and doing tricks where as just regular roller blading would be just roller blading down the street and thats all.

    Thanks thatgirl125! That clears up a lot of confusion! I usually burn about 600 an hour when rollerblading, and wasn't sure why the site would say SO much higher, I was wondering if it was an error. I wish it would specify that, so we don't accidentally use the wrong one and WAAAAAAAAAAAAY overestimate our calorie counts
