How many sit ups would you have to do if you wanted to burn 150 calories?

When it comes to burning calories, how hard and for how long is much more important than what you do. Pretty much all activities that gives you the same increase in heart rate for the same time will burn the same amount of calories.

Now, it can be a bit difficult to get a good burn going doing sit-ups only, as most people won't have enough upper body endurance to keep doing it fast and long. And it's dependent on weight, gender, age, fitness level etc.

But let's say you can do sit-ups at a pace that gets you about as sweaty and winded as if doing aerobics, then you'd need something like 10-15 minutes of continuous sit-ups to burn around 150 calories.

How many calories did you burn if you are 100 pounds and you were riding your bike for 45 mintues?

This depends on the intensity and type of exercise as well as the level of difficulty. For example 10 minutes on a treadmill might use 250 calories for one person while another would only burn 140 because they where incapable of using a more difficult setting. Also 10 minutes on a cross trainer may burn 200 Calories as it uses different muscles.

It is therefore impossible to give a answer to the above question as the number of calories burnt depends on more than just length of exercise.

How many calories are burned swimming the freestyle for 15 minutes?

There is no metabolic equation for swimmers because every swimmer swims at a different efficiency.

The easiest way to do it would be to check your heart rate somewhere towards the end of your 15 minutes. Do a 15-30 second count because your HR drops QUICK after exercise. (Subtract about 12 beats per minute from your heart rate (BPM) because your heart doesnt have to work so hard to return blood when under water and it will mess up the calculation if you dont compensate for this).

HR is nearly linear to the amount of oxygen you consume (VO2) so find a reference chart of VO2 vs Heart Rate online and see what your VO2 is at the exercise heart rate, which will be in the units "ml of O2/kg of body weight/min". From that, calculate how many Liters of Oxygen you consumed during the 15 minute swim using your body weight and minutes swimming. Once your have calculated the Liters of Oxygen you consumed you know how many calories you burned because 1 liter of oxygen = 5 calories burned.

If you know how to do math, its all right there :) The hardest part is finding the VO2 vs HR chart.
