in Fitness and Exercise
tomorrow i have a family bbq, im aware i will end up eating alot or perhaps not alot but high calorie foods! so i have adde to my diary already what i expect i would eat, and i need around 350 defasit (sorry about my poor spelling) to make my calorie intake even.... so i thought i could go for a 45 min jog around 12min mile which burn 316 calories, but i need more to burn extra on top of that! so basically all i am asking is how i can burn extra! anything at all, cleaning more excerise anything!

may i also add i have no gym equipment nor gym membership. thankyou for your time!

    maybe run for longer, so do yoga after for a half hour.

    Walking stairs is good for burn, jump rope and swimming is also excellent, or simply walk /jog longer !

    This is what I do after a run to burn more calories:

    Run up and down some stairs (super hard!)
    Jumping jacks
    Jump road
    Lunges
    Pushups/crunches (~3 sets of 15 each each)

    It's easier to tell the extra calories you've burned if you have a heart rate monitor, not sure if you do. But I know some of these are in the database. I've found its important to knock off some calories though, because the database calories are often high. Good luck!

    I just found this article on how to burn 100 calories... Good info, walking for 15 minutes should do the trick! I walked 3/4 mile in 15 min to work this morning and my HRM said I burned 104. :)

    Basically any exercise that gets your feet off the ground for the most amount of time - like jump rope or short sprints. You could also just crank up the intensity with a current workout you do. Instead of walking up the hill, try to run part of it. Instead of just running the same pace on the treadmill, crank up the incline to 8% and see if you can keep the same running pace for a minute or two. The whole idea is to add 'more' exercise in the same amount of time as before.

    Check Youtube for H.I.I.T. workouts (high intensity interval training). Some require equipment, but some don't. Of course don't do anything you aren't healthy enough to attempt.

    This isn't really a response to the calorie burn question, but more of a comment related to what you said about the blisters. If you're getting blisters from the arches in your shoes, maybe you're not wearing the right type of shoes for running? If I were you, I'd go to a running store, and have one of the employees check your feet out. They'll be able to tell you the type of shoe you need based on the shape of your foot.

    How's about steps up and down for half an hour. Burns around 500 cals if you weigh about 76kgs. Remember to change lead legs though (I forgot for too long and ended up with one sore calf for a couple of days!) :bigsmile:

    also I weight only 116 pounds so its difficult to burn calories anyway (im only 5"1) so maybe if I have hand weights will this increase the calorie burn when doing step aerobics?
