1,000 Calories Gone in 60 Minutes

February 17, 2009 | Physical Fitness

As of Saturday, the intensity level on my elliptical machine is now 10.

Since reaching level 10, I can now mathematically burn 1,000 calories in 60 minutes.  I realized this fact Saturday, but didn’t have enough time to try it out considering it was Valentine’s Day and all.  So, Monday rolled around…

That’s about 1/2 my daily calorie intake burned in a single hour.  I’m not going to stay on the elliptical 60 minutes everyday (only Wednesday), but I wanted to make an exception today to break that 1k barrier.

Going to the gym isn’t a chore for me anymore, it’s part of who I am… much like the chili cheese fries, chinese buffets, and soda were.
