Exercise Charts

Did you know that you can burn calories and lose weight on an elliptical no matter how little or how much time you are able to exercise each week? If you find yourself in the position of deciding between choosing an elliptical trainer or another exercise machine such as an exercise bike or treadmill, it helps to know how many calories you can burn on ellipticals and how beneficial they really are.

Ellipticals are a great tool to help you get the physical benefits of a full body workout right in your own home. You can work all of your muscles as well as your cardiovascular system and they are designed to give you maximum benefits from even just a short time of exercise. This is great for someone who wants to stay in shape but may not have lots of time to devote each day to going to the gym or getting a workout.

Calculating Calories Burned

One way that you can calculate the calories you burn in a workout is with a specifically designed calorie counter chart. This helps you see the benefit you are getting from your workout. Elliptical trainer calorie burn charts provide you with an estimate of the calories you burn after a certain amount of time on an elliptical machine. This will vary from person to person of course, since we are all made differently and our body burns calories differently based on our metabolism. However, here are some general guidelines to give you a better idea.

• Elliptical trainer calorie burn for a 150 pound woman at 30 minutes of exercise = 387 calories burned
• Elliptical machine calorie burn for a 180 pound man at 30 minutes of exercise = 465 calories burned
• Elliptical calorie burn for 120 pound woman at 30 minutes of exercise = 310 calories burned
• Elliptical calories burned for 150 pound woman at 30 minutes of exercise = 410 calories burned

Elliptical manufacturers claim that you can burn up to 720 calories in an hour during an elliptical workout. This is based on tests and claims that they do on their own equipment and the average person probably won't lose quite that much but you can get a very efficient workout. Ellipticals are made differently but they are all designed to give you the most beneficial workout per time put in.

Factors that Contribute to an Efficient Calorie Burn:

Some of the factors that contribute to the amount of calories burned on elliptical cross trainers are:

1. The duration of the workout
2. Interval training
3. The elliptical's resistance settings
4. Body composition of the person using the elliptical (muscle to fat ratio)
5. Your cardiovascular health (how long you have been exercising or how new you are to cardio fitness)
6. Your current weight
7. Your sex (male or female)
8. Your upper body usage during the workout

Elliptical cross trainers are a great tool for getting the most from your workout and helping you achieve the maximum elliptical trainer calorie burn. Here are some things you can do to ensure you get the most benefit from your workout:

• Use your upper arms when working out as well
• Always build your workout in intervals
• Break up your workouts throughout the day
• Use the forward and backward directions

Now that you understand how to calculate an elliptical trainer calorie burn, you can appreciate the results you will achieve by starting an exercise regimen today! Do some more research into ellipticals and you will come to the conclusion that these machines are best for achieving quick weight loss.
