    read the whole thing Fuzz, and "80 minutes of lifting". And she's not kidding, trust me.

    oh, and today I burned 124 calories in 30 minutes of Power Yoga
    189 calories in an hour of leisurely walking
    and 95 little calories in 20 minutes of dancing.

    (light day today:wink: )

    :ohwell:

    The yoga burnt only 65 cals; my HR was about 50% and it was just to wake up.
    The lifting burnt about 400...I do powerlifting for the first half hour, then I superset triceps and shoulders for the next 50 minutes, 3 sets of 10 with 60-90 second rests...my HR stays up around 70% the whole time.
    I did 15 minutes HIIT (high intensity interval training) on the stairstepper, keeping my HR around 83%.
    Then for 25 minutes I kept my HR at 75% on the elliptical for steady state.
    Then abs was pretty short but highly calisthenic so it kept my HR 65-70%.
    The cardio/abs burnt 500.

    And that's how I burn 907 cals...go until I can't anymore! :laugh:

    I'm not sure how many calories I burned today....but I did "bootcamp" at my gym thats taught by football coaches...
    it was intense- something I wasn't quite expecting (i don't know why the term "bootcamp" didn't give me a clue)
    but an hour of cardio and isometric strength training isn't bad for a tuesday evening.

    Today I burnt 330 calories riding my spin bike and lifted weights for 15 minute,.

    You all motivated me to get off the couch and do just a little bit!!! My pedometer says I took 5665 steps today which also contributes to extra calories! Thanks for the motivation to make me move!!!

    Everyone is doing so well!
    I went back to the bootcamp class, and I don't know how many calories i burned, but I do know that it hurts to walk...
    i take that as a good sign.
    so yay for me!

    Y'all are all doing so great! I took a break from working out today and instead walked for thirty minutes for a whopping 200 calories. Maybe one day I will have the strength and stamina to even compete with those numbers!
