Question: About elliptical machines?

(Posted by: Jaden on 2011-09-01 13:40:05)

Well I have read a lot of things saying that an elliptical workout can burn up to 600 to 700 calories and hour, is this true? Also I weight 130 pounds so If I do it for and hour will I lose the same amount of calories in an hour or are they talking someone who weighs 200 pounds will lose 700 in an hour?? I really just need advice on the elliptical haha

I aim to lose 100 calories per ten minutes on the elliptical so it 's very possible that you can lose 600 calories in an hour if you continue with the same stamina. I weigh about 112 lbs. It 's my favourite machine :) <3 Definitely recommend.

I weigh 110, and I can burn at least 400 calories in an hour... I haven 't tried to get 600, but maybe that 's a little bit high. If you really push yourself, though, than maybe.

It depends how fast you go and your resistance. I can burn 300 calories in 15-20 mins... So yeah you can burn that much in an hour. I 'm 133 lbs.... So what matters is how fast you go a minute and what your resistance level is...
