Ever wondered what's the most calories you can burn per hour? Ever wondered how certain activities/exercises compare with other things (even daily life)? Here is a comprehensive list of around 300 things:

http://www.nutristrategy.com/caloriesburned.htm
(there are also a number of other charts with other stuff like walking uphill, marching, etc. check em out)

Of course these are all relative to surrounding and intensity, but a great general guideline when deciding what exercises to choose.
Some surprising shit on there, as well as a bunch of crap I have no idea what even are. And I'm sure some of these activities can not be exactly accurate depending on how you apply yourself in them. Skateboarding for example, can change greatly depending if you are going uphill, downhill, riding on smooth or rough street, doing tricks over and over, or just peddling down a flat smooth street (I'm assuming they chose the latter).

Top 3 in terms of calorie burning:
  • Running >5.5minute mile (10.9mph/17.5kph)
  • Cross Country Skiing uphill
  • Forestry/Axe Chopping vigorously


Running obviously, but the others lol. Who knew?

I also created a png image with all the activities over 900 CBph per hour at the highest weight class and color coded them sort of arbitrarily on highest, middle-highest, and low-highest.

[image loading]

I always hear things from people who think they know the best exercises or that certain exercises are best or on the same par as others. And I've often debated the subject with co workers or random people. So now you can set them straight. Share the knowledge! Cheers.

True, but you can choose something a little more manageable that burns the most calories for you to start and work your way up to that. It's all about being efficient.

vlaric, Last year or so I've been wondering how to cardio and lift at the same time or even if you should. It seems like they are counter-conducive to each other. Do people just do cycles of workout regiments throughout the year? Like a bulking heavy lifting for 3 months, then cardio stuff for 3 months, then hypertrophy rep based stuff for 3 months, etc?

cardio is always good for u (improves cardiovascular health), but you're right in that it can make things a little more difficult for those who are 'hard-gainers', the skinny guys who can eat a lot and not put on much weight. usually these guys will not do cardio because it's already hard for them to eat as much as they need to eat to put on mass without the extra caloric deficit that cardio provides.

but for most people (lifters included), cardio isn't necessarily a bad thing or counterproductive to gains. so long as you're eating an adequate amount of protein/calories, it's still very possible to put on mass while partaking in a regular cardio routine. in fact, a lot of the biggest guys in my old gym were training for marathons/half-marathons and stuff like that.

Zyzz didn't die from steroids brah.



As the temperature continued to increase, Zyzz managed to regain conciousness. He was still in the sauna, and his heart was beating rapidly with each beat sending intense vibrations of pain throughout his body. Unable to get himself up off the floor, Zyzz begins a series of attempts to open the door, with each failure edging him closer off the ledge into the abyss of death until alas, he manages to open the door and collapses on his back outside.

Zyzz manages to crawl out of the sauna not realising that there is a person standing next to him, observing him, almost as if mocking him. As Zyzz lay on the tiled floor gripping his chest in pain after being unable to both completely move his body completely out of the sauna and unable to identify the person as his vision has deteriorated into a blur, the person presents itself. "Hello, bro" the person greets him, in an enthusiastic tone. "S..Said?" slurs a disoriented Zyzz. It is indeed 'Chestbrah'.

"You took everything from me.." yells Said while gripping Zyzz's hair, lifting his head up to make close eye-contact.
"S-Said, please, call an ambo, i'm ****ed up..." slurs Zyzz, barely able to keep eye contact, before beginning to throw up all over himself.
"Yes, yes, brother, throw it all up, make me taste it, make me smell it!" Utters Said in his now snake-like voice while simultaneously reaching down Zyzz's shorts to grab his penis with his right hand, while using his left hand to scoop up small portions of vomit before passing them into his own mouth to taste. "Mmmm, not so godly now, huh, brother? Tastes like mortality" taunts said again.

"LET'S SEE HOW GODLY YOU ARE NOW BROTHER. YOU TOOK EVERYTHING ME FROM ME. I CANNOT EVEN **** MY OWN GIRL WITHOUT HER WANTING TO WATCH VIDEOS OF YOU, MY OWN BROTHER, FLEXING AS I PUMP AWAY. DO YOU UNDERSTAND MY SHAME? DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE TORTURE YOU PUT ME THROUGH FOR ALL THESE YEARS. I TAUGHT YOU, I TRAINED YOU, I INTRODUCED YOU TO CELLTECH, AND YOU REPAY ME BY MAKING ME YOUR MOP TO CLEAN YOUR **** UP, YOUR SIDEKICK TO CAST JOKES UPON? ME, YOUR OWN DEAR BROTHER." yells an infuriated Said, before pausing to catch his breath. "Now.. NOW... Look at you... So placid, so incapable, so.. weak".

"Said.... You raped a boy... you deserve none of those things.. But i'll still love you as my brother" Replies Zyzz, with all his might. "Now please... get me an ambulance."

"I don't think so. You see, it's my turn.. It's my turn to shine, now. It's my turn to be you. I am going to become you. We will be one, and to begin this transformation, brother, will require one more act for us to do together" States a now calm and collected Said before beginning to roll Zyzz onto his stomach. "I am going to **** you, brother. I am going to **** you, and i'm going to cum inside you. Then you will cum in my mouth. I am going to absorb your life force, brother."

Said begins to unzip his jeans to release a 5.5 inch penis and then continues to pull down Zyzz's shorts.

I heard that doing marathons often is pretty bad for you. Maybe training and doing one is fine, but overall it's pretty unhealthy which seems kind of strange but I guess it's one of those diminishing returns things. Also, I don't see why you would want all that extra muscle weight on your top half if you're planning to run 13-26 miles. Seems like it would slow you down and make the work all that much harder.

Anyway, I see your point though. I still try and run/walk a couple miles every week for my hearth muscle training! I get enough cardio from warmups and lifting weights imho.

What height/weight are you? And how old? I would just suggest eating high calorie foods and keeping them around and snack them regularly throughout the day. Ever heard of the GOMAD diet?

Weights and lifts than a nice cardio session burns and is proven most effective for me at least, I've lost plenty of weight and gained a noticeable muscle mass in a 4-6 month period. But since then I've seem to reach that plateau stage and also have a reoccurring rotator cuff injury during my elementary school years. =(

5'7, 125lbs, and 27. I doubt there's still room to grow. :p Though I was only 115 a year and a half ago, so I have gained 10 pounds. I also have tiny bones. Like seriously small bones. That's why I weigh so little, it's not for the lack of meat on me.

I googled GOMAD. I'm kinda lactose intolerance (I puke it if I drink enough, but not small amounts).

I too have a problem with my left shoulder. When I was about 11 I was in a pool and playing volley ball. The ball went behind me and my left arm was under water, I reached out and jumped back to hit it and when my arm exited the pressure of the water I over-exteneded or dislocated my shoulder and then popped it back in a second later. It hasn't been 100% ever since. I recently reinjured it again about a year ago lifting weights. It's better now, in fact I think it's better than ever because of the weightlifting because it not only builds muscle, but bones, tendons, and ligaments become stronger as well.

You won't be growing more into adult no, but you can still grow and be a stronger version of yourself. Like I mentioned above, weightlifting also increases bone density and other things besides muscles. Start out with low or no weight and just work on form and hypertrophy (high reps/low weight) and just add 5 lbs every week or so until you are at a decent level. It's what I did. Started at like 6'2" 165lbs when I was 26-27 and this morning I am 29 at 192lbs (was up to 205 when I was eating more). You just have to dedicate to lifting and eating a shit load. I usually eat a meal 1-2 hours before working out and have a ~600cal fruit/milk smoothie post workout and then 1-2 hours later eat another meal on top of it. Sucks that you can't have milk because it's honestly one of the best things I would advocate for gains. It has carbs, protein, vitamins, minerals, and all that good shit. I mean think about it, it's babies sole intake for everything the body needs to grow, and they grow fast.

Once you're past the 6 minute mile pace, you're really not doing cardio for the weight loss anymore and just doing it because running is enjoyable and has a lot of cardiovascular and other health benefits if you're not pushing your knees and ankles too hard or incorrectly, so really talking about 5.5 pace for weight loss is a bit silly XD. Lifting and diet is much better for weight loss when you're only running 12 minute miles.

^ I like swimming too but swimming is a lot more work than just running (treadmill) or lifting (dumbbells). Plus, some people are self-conscious about their body, and you're not really going to get great exercise (or lap times) when you're very much overweight. Swimming's great in general though if you're trying to stay fit (not the best for any long-term goals).
There is no one like you in the universe.

yea those were some pretty extreme examples haha. i'm actually the same way; i used to have a lengthy running cardio routine but i discovered that it really cut into my gains and recovery, so i've settled for lighter cardio workouts with exercises that are less stressful on the joints/ligaments like the elliptical and jumprope.

I would really only advocate swimming for people if they have joint problems, weight issues or mobility problems that don't allow them to run or cycle.
I'm of the opinion that if it's something you enjoy or look forward to, then it could be a better workout or you're not pushing yourself hard enough and you're taking the easy route.. You need to be doing something that you hate that your body hates for those gains yo! It's also a bit more satisfying and mentally gratifying when you are disciplining yourself. A lot of the times when I workout these days it's more for the mental health than the body health. It's like the best stress reliever, great for depression/bad moods, and overall feeling great after you accomplished your workout both mentally and physically. This is SCIENCE fact, yolo/carpe diem/it is a good day to die!
