A general rule of thumb is that a person burns about 600 calories per hour on an elliptical. This varies greatly based on how intensely the person is working out, as well as the weight of the individual. The internet has a wide variety of web calculators to allow individuals to personalize calories burned based on their own weight and time exercised.

Know Your NET Calories Burned?
So you burned 300 calories on the elliptical this morning? Great! But if you are adding up your calories to lose weight you need to know your Net calories burned, not your Gross calories. I won't get too into the technical/mathematical side of things, but here we go... Did you know that 3,500 calories equals one pound of fat? Well, if you are using exercise to burn those 3,500 calories you need to factor OUT what you would have burned if you did no activity during that time you exercised. Let's say, for example, your resting metabolic rate has you burning 80 calories per hour doing absolutely nothing. Yep, even while you are sleeping you are burning those calories. Now maybe instead of taking a nap for 1 hour you decide to go to the gym to workout. So you hop on the elliptical for an hour and burn 500 calories. You do this every day of the week and on the 7th day you weigh yourself expecting to have lost 1 pound since you burned 500 calories each day on the elliptical. Well, if you didn't notice any weight loss it might be because you didn't actually burn 3,500 calories more than you normally do. Multiply the 80 calories you would have burned sleeping during that hour each day by those 7 days (80 x 7), subtract it from 3,500 calories and you actually only burned 2,940 (NET) calories (560 calories short of burning enough to lose one pound). It may not seem like 80 calories not considered each day makes a big difference but over 365 days that is 29,200 calories - which equates to an additional 8 pounds that won't be lost each year if you forget to factor OUT the resting calories you would burn anyway. So do one to two more days of the elliptical, or whatever way you prefer to exercise, before weighing in after that first "week" and you should be close to losing that pound. Or burn 600 GROSS calories each hour/day doing exercise and you will be right around 3,500 additional calories burned per week. But hey, our bodies aren't perfect - they don't always follow the mathematical rules to weight loss- just be patient and give it time.
What information does the screen/computer on the Elliptical Trainer share with the person using the machine Is there settings on the screen/computer to improve the work-out obtained from the Elliptical Trainer?
It will share your heart rate, the exercise program (numbered 1 through 9) that you chose to work on, as well as calories you burn. I believe there is a setting to customize your workout as well.
