    I usually burn about 450 calories a day walking!

    It is enough to make me feel like I am human and not a rabbit---those few extra calories make all the difference!123504.png

    I don't have a HRM so I generally half my calories so that I don't overestimate. So I normally burn about 150 on my strength training days and 300 on my cardio days. :flowerforyou:

    I would LOVE to have a HRM and eat more. :laugh:

    70 min in the gym today both cardio and weights 1,020 - I really hit it today. Norm. I range from mid 700's to 1000 on days I go to the gym.

    Thankfully I'm so out of shape that I can burn that many :laugh:

    It ranges greatly for me. Some days I just do yoga, and I burn relatively few. Others days I do cardio classes and lots of circuit training and burn closer to 900. I have had a couple days of 1200 calories burned but really it's more than I need or have time for now.

    600. No lower than 450-up to 850. We'll see on my new HRM, I'm afraid it's less. P90X says you should burn about 600 though and it's an intense program, so hopefully I'm on par. I really don't knpw how people burn over 1000. Maybe my HRM is wrong.:huh:

    Today I burned 1640, which is high. I usually burn b/t 800-1000. Today I rode my bike 22 miles, which burned 900, plus I walked the dog 2 miles and did bodypump tonight.

    Tomorrow I will do some strength training and spin class so I will probably hit 850 or so. It is supposed to rain so the dog will be stuck inside with me!

    I just started exercising again late November and burn 500 to 550 calories every other day on my stationary bike. When I go over my daily calorie allowance, I get back on the bike before bedtime.

    I usually burn about 1000 calories a day. I love the elliptical and do high intensity slower or low intensity faster and it comes out the same amount of calories.
