Hi starlte, I have also wanted to know the same thing about retro walking. I read through several articles then came Up with my own formula. If you had a pedometer it would make your counting calories much easier. I read an article on ehow.com titled " how do I convert a step counter to calories", where it explains than…

Thanks for the tip!

I definitely do a 10-15 min. cardio warm-up before i do strength. I guess i just want to be able to count every calorie burned in my routine that i can. I try and keep the bare minimum calories burned during strength training. Most of the time I use a calculation from an internet site so i get an idea of what i might have…

I was kinda thinking today about the same thing. Little different scenario though. I was wishing it would only take a week to lose my 20 lbs. but then I realized since I am just Now starting my weight loss journey I probably wouldnt have started working out any sooner, even if it did only take a week! Patience is something…
