How to ACCURATELY calculate calories burned while working out!
We have all seen those cute āeasy 100 calorie workoutā posts. But sadly, those calories burned arenāt always accurate to what your weight it. A person who weighs 180 pounds is going to burn more calories than someone who weighs 135 pounds. So Iāve done the math behind how to get a perfect count
KEY THINGS TO REMEMBER
⢠Each workout has their own level of intensity which will therefore burn different amounts of calories
⢠To get an accurate count, each exercise must be done for a full minute without stopping.
HOW TO CALCULATE
⢠Each exercise below has a matching decimal
⢠Take the decimal associated with whatever exercise you did and multiply it by your current body weight
⢠That number will tell you how many calories you burned in one minute of that exercise
Squats~ .096
Push-ups~ .037
Crunches~ .022
Planking~ .022
Jumping jacks~ .037
Arm Circles~ .007
Mountain climbers~ .059
Lunges~ .059
Donkey/Back kicks~ .030
Walking~ .014
Running/sprinting~ .096
Stairs/ Stair climber~ .044
Weight Lifting~ .022
Box jumps~ .096
Burpees~ .059
EXAMPLE
For a 135 pound person- one minute of burpees will burn roughly 8 calories a minute
For a 180 pound person- one minute of burpees will burn roughly 11 calories a minute
I hope this helped any confusion of how to accurately count calories with out the use of a Fitbit, calorie tracker app, or just guessing. Happy exercising!

Are you vegan or vegetarian? If not, would you consider it?
I’m neither. I would consider it however meat is a large part of my life as I live on a sheep farm
Stop spreading the idea that you need to drink 10 litres of water a day. If you all really do drink as much water as you say you can literally fuck up your body and blood and nervous system. Overhydrating is called water intoxication (or water poisoning) and is an electrolyte imbalance. If youāre not getting enough sodium because youāre diluting it with an excess of water (hyponatraemia) then your body can experience:
– Nausea
– Vomiting
– Headache
– Confusion or an altered mental state
– Seizures
– Restlessness
– Muscle spasms or cramps
– Weakness
– Fatigue
– Irritability
– Hallucinations
– Decreased consciousness
SEVERE HYPONATRAEMIA can lead to a coma or even be fatal.
Anorexia is a very quick way to have dangerously low sodium levels, and mixed with how much water people on here tell you to drink⦠anorexics are prime targets for it.
Look, if itās mild, itās treatable and youāll just have to add more salt to your diet. But you can die from this. If youāre not eating for days at a time and drinking water constantly itās not actually healthy or helping you. Itās dangerous and throws your body off. We already deal with too many side effects from anorexia what with not getting enough vitamins, not pooping for days at a time, losing your period, or being exhausted all the time⦠donāt add this to the list. Stay hydrated but donāt overdo it.
This is a 7 day plan for working out, each link is a different work out/ routine that you can do at home.
I have quite a high level of fitness and training so I may be sharing workouts that are unsafe for some people to do. Please make sure you are doing each exercise properly to avoid injury!
