Cardio calculating

[UberSteroids]

I was just sitting today and thinking about burning fat by doing cardio.

Let's see if I got this right.

1g fat = 9 calories
1kg = 1000g
1kg = 2.2Lbs
1Lb fat = 4077 calories
45min cardio @ +/-600cal/hr = 450 calories
9 sessions of 45 min cardi @ -/+600cal/hr = 1lb fat burned
2 sessions a day for one month = 7lb fat burned
5 months = 35lb fat burned

I better start now...

well you sure did your math, now its time to put it into practice.

What you didnt calculate is the fact that your body continues to burn fat after you've ended your cardio session. Also, how do you take into account your metabolism and diet factors?

I think youre calculations are way off

Oh, I just wanted to calculate what I can burn off minimum for SURE just by beeing on the machine.

I still didn't count all the HR going up when I lift so.
