This is a very difficult question to provide an answer for but I'll have a go.
Calories or energy is burned during every human activity. The more physically straining the activity, will inevitably lead to more calories being burned.
Although speaking for an hour is not even on the same scale as say, horsriding for the same amount of time, it still will burn up energy. Most probably a small amount, but it depends, because using up brain power also requires energy.
The number of calories burned while lifting weights for one hour varies based on factors such as body weight, intensity of the workout, and individual metabolism. On average, a person may burn between 200 to 400 calories in an hour of weightlifting. More intense sessions or heavier lifting can lead to higher calorie expenditure. It's also worth noting that muscle mass and recovery can increase overall calorie burn post-workout.
The amount of calories burned lifting 5 pound weights varies depending on different factors. Gender, current weight, age, and the amount of time you spend lifting the weights are factors that need to be considered before determining the amount of calories it burns.
Are you asking "Will lifting weights one hour per year result in increased muscle mass?" If so the answer is NO!
300
a lot !=]
300 calories.
500 per hour average
5000 if you do it correctly.
350/hour
600 calories.
The number of calories burned while cycling can be calculated by converting the power output in watts to calories per hour. This conversion is typically around 4 calories per watt per hour.
This is a tough one and I hear this asked from me very often. The thing about calories burned in the gym is very hard to define, since there are so many different kind of programs that you have. Programs with higher volume tend to burn more calories, since they put your body to do a lot more work than doing a few repetitions with very high weight. On the other hand, real strength programs that are developed to build pure mass for you is known for the fact that you don't really burn that many calories during the weight training, but your muscles take nearly two to three days to recover, which burns calories over time.The median answer that I got from five different sources was that going to the gym burns 400-500 calories in an hour, which is 200-250 in half an hour. This of course isn't an exact value, but is fairly accurate.
