    I used to rollerblade often. I'm wondering how good of a workout that is? I havent done it in my adult life. I'm curious to see.

    I went rollerblading yesterday around my neighborhood twice. I wore my heart rate monitor and only burned about half as many calories as what MFP says I would. Hmmm.....
    I did burn 55% fat though! Gotta love that!! :-):love:
    I definitely say rollerblading is a great cardio workout, but use a HRM to get an accurate calorie count.
    we must have been posting at the same time
