    Today, I burnt 585 calories doing 50 utes on the elliptical, random setting, level 17. The cool thing is that level 17 is getting too easy now!!! I remember when level 5 was tough on that thing! LOL Plus, I did some strength training. Not sure how much I burned on that though.

    Another cool thing is that a woman hopped on the inner thigh machine right after me, looked at me impressed and said "you can do 110??...not me!!"...........Yes, trying to get rid of the inner thigh jigglys!

    today I burnt 765 calories doing 35 minutes elliptical, 10 minutes biking and 40 minutes strength training.

    Can anyone help me understand what the difference is in strength training and circuit training? I've just noticed that there is a HUGE variance in the calories listed for the them.

    Strength training is more anaerobic and causes more hypertrophy or strength development, depending on the rep/set range. Circuit training is more aerobic and results in less of the above. Both use weights.

    Today I burnt 785 calories doing 90 minutes of lifting, 25 minutes on the elliptical, and 3 sets of abs.
    I have had to take a lot of time off because I had a powerlifting competition last night...which I won! :bigsmile: I benched 130, beat the record for my weight class by 30 lbs and matched the overall female record (which is held by someone in the 150-200 weight class). I could've done 135 but ran out of attempts, oops :)

    Morning,
    Well, I got myself on the elliptical this morning at 5:25 am and burnt 501 cal (50 mins).
    I'm glad I did it early, good way to start the day.

    Have a good exercise day!
