how many calories should I burn in a normal Cardio workout?
Respected Member
depends on your stats and alos how long of a session and what your doing but mainly depends on age, height, weight etc...Originally Posted by jesusf3055

Also depends on training experience, cardio experience. A marathon runner doing cardio at 135BPM will burn fewer calories than a a big fattie that never works out doing the same cardio at the same heart rate will. Its hard to pinpoint the exact number of calories you burn during a cardio session, thats why all these stupid calorie counter gadgets are a joke.....You shouldnt worry about the number of calories you burn during cardio anyway, thats not the point of doing cardio when it comes to bodybuilding anyhow.

Agreed, like on the tread mill or the eliptical machine I can run 2 miles at almost max heart rate and it says i burned the same amount of calories as when I walk for the same amount of time at like 65% MHR, just at a steeper incline. Those counters are worthless IMO
