RUNNING. I weigh 142 and burn 100 calories for each mile i run (about).0

I weigh 204 right now, but when I run, I burn about 550 calories in 30 minutes! At least, that's what my HRM says. Running generally keeps my heartrate in the 180-190bpm range (I'm 25 & seem to have a higher than average max heartrate - I'm breathing pretty comfortably at 180-5). So, that's how I can pretty easily burn around 700-800 cals in 45 minutes or so.0

I weigh 153 lbs. and burn 700 calories riding my bike around our slightly hilly city in the northeast for 70 minutes. I burned 960 yesterday riding for an hour and 45 minutes. 25 minutes of strength training and 40 minutes of interval walking usually burns around 600 for me.0

It definitely depends on your weight- a 150 lb person uses much less energy to move than a 250 lb person.
I weigh 125-128 and getting in 300-400 cals on a regular workout is great for me, but for someone heavier it would be a walk in the park0 -

Yeah I agree.
And that day I did 800 calories, it was multiple hours and sessions! :laugh: I only did it once because that night I thought I was going to die!!!!0 -
I posted this earlier today and just wanted to share it here! It's a great article called "Why Cardio Alone Doesn't Cut Fat": http://articles.elitefts.com/training-articles/why-cardio-alone-doesnt-cut-fat/
I weigh 160 and usually can burn 300 calories in a half hour on the elliptical. If I have the time (like last night while watching baseball at the gym), I do 30-60 minutes of cardio, some circuit training, and then lift.
Be sure you're eating your exercise calories! :-)0 -
I burn about 650 during an hour of spin and 750 during 75 min of zumba - according to my HRM even more if I really push harder/up my tension....
I'm 214 lbs0 -
I currently weigh about 170- I burn 800+ calories regularly (about 3-4 days a week). I've found that wearing my HRM ensures that I am really able to gauge how hard I am making my body work and it keeps me in the zone. In a 60 min. workout I would say that I never let my heart rate fall below 75% and for at least 40 minutes I make sure to keep it between 85-90%. Whichever machine I'm working on I just make sure to increase resistance and/or speed if I see that my HR is lagging a bit. It's good way to get your heart rate up that I've found are sprints, that is usually a good kick start on the days that my heart rate doesn't seem to want to increase. Doing this also constantly ensures that I continue to challenge myself with each and every workout.
Hope this is helpful- best of luck to you!0 -
