Hi,
I was wondering how I can possibly burn 1000 calories a day as a lightweight female person? Any suggestions?
Many thanks!

2 hours at medium intensity running, or bike riding should do the trick.0

Ha, sorry I suggested this too after your post. Sadly, I usually come in just under 1000 for a 10 miler. *sigh*0 -
Why do you want to burn 1000 cals a day?0

Same here - usually takes me about 12 miles to hit 1000.0 -
Many thanks for your answers!
Just to add: I do not have a tracker so I usually count in only half of the calories in MFP. So it would have to be 2000 cal or 1000 real calories then...
And I need to do it today to balance out....0 -

It's such a bummer. Of course, I'm not running 10 for the calories, but it's a nice bonus. Also, I usually eat a cheeseburger and fries afterward so it all evens out.0 -
Elliptical?0

Is it possible to burn that amount?0

Bike 30 miles and should roughly burn 1000+ calories. That's about 3-4 hours bicycling around 12 mph.0

I'm sorry - what do you mean by "real calories" ? Are there other kinds of calories out there? Also, you can get a HRM for about $30 on Amazon, I love mine.0

Same time on the elliptical as running would be, assuming you kept the resistance and your rate up. 12 miles. If you keep up a 15 minutes mile, that's only 3 hours.0

I burned maybe 400 calories when I ran 5 miles at my slow pace lol... I burn more calories walking at an incline. 450 in one hour with a 8% incline. So I guess to burn 1000 I'd have to do it for 2 hours and 15 minutes or something... which is just not happening.0

Breathing. You probably burn over 1300 calories a day just existing. What is your TDEE?0

Ehh - bad answer. Not a good idea to "exercise bulimia" your way out of eating too much... That is a downward spiral into a bad place.0 -
I would like to work off some overeating and see whether I can make this challenge. It is not intended for everyday! I am in the mood for sports, too. I should maybe add that I prefer doing long low intensity over any high intensity hardcore stuff...
Many thanks for all of your help again! By the way-do you all have trackers? If so which ones?0 -
Does anyone know how much slow running in place approximately burns?
0 -
If you are talking "low intensity" be prepared to spend 3 or 4 hours working on that 1000...0

I have a Polar HT4 and oops! Sorry, it was not $30, I paid $55 for it. Worth it, though.0 -
12 -3 Minute rounds of Boxing on a heavy bag....1 minute active rest between rounds....works for me..0

If you don't normally do that insensity of physical activity...i.e. regularly run or bike long distances in short times, I'd say it's a bad idea to try to burn 2000 calories in one shot. A really bad idea.0

10,000 steps a day is about 800 calories0

I'm a relatively lightweight female person (5'4", 126lbs) and I don't think I would burn anywhere near 1000 calories running 10 miles.0

I took it to mean her actual burn, not the machine's readout or MFP over-estimation.0 -
