how much do you burn?

i was just wondering how many calories everyone burns doing a typical exercise session?

i burn around 800-1000 if my exercise is at the gym, if im at home it'l be around 250-400 depending on what im doing

im just being nosey to see what everyone else does

I don't go to a gym, I'm WAY too cheap for THAT! :laugh:
Between my walking, jogging and sometimes dancing, I only burn like 250 to 350 or so a day. But, it's usually enough to up my numbers so that I have enough numbers for everything that I want to eat, and that's what matters to me! :laugh:

It can vary for me. I like to go to the gym and use the elliptical - if I turn up the resistance it says I'm burning 600+ for my 45 minute workout. Now if this is correct, then I'm golden, if not, then I'm eating calories I shouldn't. I also try some days to mix it up - 15 minutes of biking, 15 of walking, 15 of rowing. I always try to fit some weight in after, so don't know how much that really burns. Gotta get me a HRM.

Hi

I work out at home and burn roughly 500-600 cals a session
I usually do sprints on the treadmill and/or J/M DVD's and yoga....I usually work out for 45min-1hr 15min

Hi,

I always do about 400-500 cals depending on what I'm doing! OMG I can't believe some people burn 1000 :noway:

Over the last six months I have really gotten in good cardio shape so I don't burn many calories. Weight lifting for 45minutes I will only burn about 50 calories. My heart rate just doesn't rise that much.

Running I burn between 250-800 calories depending on the distance.

Yoga I burn ~50 calories (slow hartha)

Walking 2 miles pushing a stroller in 90+ degree weather, I burn ~150 calories.

Saturdays are my long running days, which I like since that means I can be a little more splurging on my food too. :happy:

Hey CurvyKatie

In 1 session I burn approx 750cals doing 60 mins cardio and around 400cals doing 60 mins strength training (gym), I do that twice a week. And then i do a Body Pump class twice a week which burns around 500-600 cals per session. And on Saturday i do body combat which again burns approx 500 cals.

Yeah Body Pump!
I have worn my hrm to a few of the classes and I burn about 600-700 cals.
Combat is a great class too but I have only gone a few times.
Have you tried Body Flow? It's great on "off" workout days to help stretch out and relax.
Our gym started new releases a few weeks ago and they had a 3 hrs marathon where you could try 30mins classes. I tried spinning and Body jam for the first time. I have no rythm so I didn't like Jam but spinning was awesome. It was hard, especially since I had already done 1.5 hrs of other classes, but it was a lot of fun.

I have also been burning about 800-1000 calories at the gym. I do a circuit now. I do 15-20 min on ellipitical, then do half my weights, then 15-20 min on treadmill then finish weights and most days do 15-20 min more on one of cardio machines. I find I can do higher intensity workout this way and burn more calories. I do use an HRM. When I walk at local college I usually burn about 300-600 depending on time I spend there and if I jog some. Doing short bursts of very high intensity does help up those calories burned. Hope this helps.

My old exercise routine: a half hour of cardio during my lunch break -- just under 300 cals

Spin class: 45-55 minutes intense cardio -- 500+ cals

Running intervals, half hour -- 300+ cals




I try to keep it around 300-500 cals each workout.

I burn about 380 calories an hour swimming breastroke and about 320 an hour cycling. The cycling seems to 'hurt' so much nmore, but the numbers are pretty similar! About 270 an hour walking at a decent pace.

Remember that the better shape you are in, the less calories you burn.

I mix it up at the gym. For example on Friday I ran 7 miles in a little over an hour and burned about 730 calories, Saturday I did the elliptical for 30minutes followed by weights and burned about 350, and then yesterday I did a 5 miler in under 45minutes and burned just over 450 calories.
