How Many Calories Did I Burn

Using a stair stepper or any other fitness equipment, will burn calories and help you to lose weight. But how do you calculate actual calories you burned?

The number of calories that you burn varies based upon various factors including an individual’s weight, fitness and age. It can also depend upon how long the workout lasts and the resistance level of the stair stepper .

Quick guide based upon a 60 minute stair stepper exercise session:

Person who weighs 120 lbs burns around 514 calories.
Person who weighs 150 lbs burns around 643 calories.
Person who weighs 170 lbs burns around 729 calories.

When you use exercise stepper machines, you can burn lots of calories in a low impact way as to reduce the chances of being injured. In comparison to other more intensive types of exercise such as running on a treadmill, exercise stepper machines are much easier on the back and joints. Always consult your doctor before taking up a new form of exercise especially if you haven’t exercised for a while.
