Calorie Burn Chart - Calories Burned Per
Minute of Exercise By Weight
Every activity you do burns
calories. The more
calories you burn, the faster your body uses up incoming
fuel (food) intake. If your requirements exceed the
calories provided by incoming fuel, the body dips into
its reserves (fat) to supply the energy you need. By
lowering your calorie intake and increasing your
activity, you are able to lose weight. Men burn calories
faster than women. Heavier people burn calories faster
than thin people. Exactly how many calories are expended
by any individual will vary.
The following chart gives the approximate number of
calories burned per minute of a variety of activities.
For each activity,
multiply your exact weight by the number in the per
pound column to equal the number of calories burned per
minute. Multiply this number by the number of minutes in
that activity to equal total calories burned.
