I use a high-tech machine at my gym that calculates calories burned by age, weight, height, intensity and length of your workout.

What machine is this?

This is the ArcTrainer that I am talking about. It is kind of like an eliptical machine, but I like it much better. I can use it more efficiently and I burn more calories with it than with the treadmill or eliptical. Personal preference, but it's what I like. I'm trying to think what exactly you input, but there's a few different things you input so that it will be as accurate as possible for the calories you have burned. It's pretty much just like any other newer, electric workout machine where you can input your age, weight, level, etc.. I'm sure the treadmill you just bought is the same. The height, it seems to me, would be used for letting the machine know what your weight is in relation to your height, because obviously, if you are, say for instance, 200 pounds and you are a male that's 6'3, that's much different than for a female that's 5'5. You would burn calories at a different rate, I'm thinking. Does that make sense? > > > > I'm not sure how you arrive at your calories burned #'...But I assure you > > > > that you are way high...GG"Shauhnathan" <shau...@yahoo.com> wrote in message [quoted text clipped - 53 lines] > > - Show quoted text - No, I don't think that matters. Assuming an exercise is weight- bearing (which this is), calorie-burning is relative to your overall weight, but not to your weight/height ratio. I suppose there could be some slight variation in calorie-burning depending on whether one's body composition is higher or lower in fat vs. lean tissue (muscle, bone, etc.), but if so I don't think it would be much. Anyway, no big deal -- I've just never heard of height as a factor. (Age and gender do make a difference, as they affect one's metabolic rate.) If you've not seen it, you might find the website www.caloriesperhour.com interesting.

Ever seen this technology? If it doesn't take into consideration heart rate, it may be a bit off. I don't know how much you weigh, but I have a polar heart rate monitor that gives me calories burned based on sex, age, weight, and heart rate. In 40 minutes of intense cardio I don't burn more than 320. I weigh 120, but if you were considerably heavier, you'd burn more. If you are losing weight in line with your estimated calories though, that's all that matters. > Breakfast: bowl of apple jacks cereal w/ 1% milk cal- 220 > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > leg and calf weights- 30 reps each and > stability ball bridges- 30 reps now, Shau, I think a shot is 2 oz so 2 shots (you said a few, so maybe more)so your vodka/dr pepper is 331 calories at least. tut tut tut. alcohol is oh so expensive calorie-wise. But you were very good to eat just 3 hershey kisses. > > Breakfast: bowl of apple jacks cereal w/ 1% milk cal- 220 > [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > alcohol is oh so expensive calorie-wise. But you were very good to > eat just 3 hershey kisses Nopey. I don't lie. i don't know what calorie-checker you're using, but it must be quite inaccurate. I get my calorie counts from calorieking.com and it states 80 proof vodka is 64 calories per ounce. You are probably right about the two ounces, so that would make it 128, actually less than I said, so I was a little high in my record. If you are counting the Dr. Pepper as adding calories, you didn't pay attention to my post- it states Diet Dr. Pepper. I only drink diet drinks. > Breakfast: bowl of apple jacks cereal w/ 1% milk cal- 220 > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > leg and calf weights- 30 reps each and > stability ball bridges- 30 reps Seems like people are trying to catch me in a lie............for some reason. Hm. Any reason why? |
