I use the elyptical machine for my cardio since it's easy on the knees. How can I tell how much i burn or how accurat is the machine? It says I burn about 850 calories. I do it for 45 minutes at level 12 and go at a constant 65-68 speed.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
how can you tell how many calories you burn?

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
There are formulas out there about METS, grades, speed, watts, KG, and all that, and its quite a post and I dont really think its necessary to post because even professionals like myself rarely equate all that unless it was for a class or test.armadon said:I use the elyptical machine for my cardio since it's easy on the knees.

I can say though that your 850 is high and more than likely wrong.
Some rough calc would be for instance... If a 140lb person walks at 6mph (zero grade) would be about 5kcal per liter of O2 or 125kcal to run 1 mile
You also have to take into consideration V02 and what % are you working at of your THR? 60%? 80%
140lbs running 3 miles in 24min burns about 357kcal
So you can see you'd have to run 6 miles in 48min to burn 700cal and that is more than what you are cycling.
All I can say if that if you want to get precise, you're going to have to use a formula.
armadon said:ok, thanks. appreciate the response. didn't know it was that complicated.
There are just many things to take into consideration. Is it walking, jogging, running, what speed, how long, is there a grade (as in 3% 5%) running up stairs, how about a mountain? How old are you, what % are you running at, or doing your activity?
This is why its hard, but search around online and you can find some decent calculators that at least give some kind of starting point.
Type in your age and weight and activity and it will guess for you based off of what ever equation was entered into that program.
I'm guessing the machine would be close enough in giving an estimate if it asks you to put in age and weight? The one I use just asks for weight so I guess I just need to figure out how to add that into the mix. thanks Omen for the responses.
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
