    I see that you run in place to get exercise at different times. What would be the calories burned with something like this? Is it the same thing as running outside?

    Well, I just checked the exercise database and it says you burn the same if you were to jog outside or jog in place which I think is kinda wrong.

    30 minute jog outside @ 5MPH: 230 calroies burn
    the same if you jog in place for 30 minutes

    But this is based on your weight.

    I don't know if this is accurate though.

    I've always wondered if jogging in place works? Do you guys think that it does?

    there's another site:

    http://www.caloriesperhour.com

    You can calculate how many calories you burn and adjust it in MFP site for yourself.
    It's a good reference but it doesn't keep track of everything like this site does.
