Author Topic: How many calories does a typical bb'er burn during a workout??????? (Read 4270 times)

The Squadfather · « **on:** February 23, 2007, 04:20:50 PM »

this Trey Brewer thread got me wondering, bb'ers make it sound as if they climbed Mt. Everest, ran a marathon, cured cancer and did a triathlon with the amount of food they eat, my guess is that the average weight workout burns MAYBE 250-300 CALORIES MAX, whaddya think?

I don't think that's even close.. maybe like 120-140 max.

Depending on their workouts (lots of supersets, is it leg day, or how little/lot are the rest periods, just weights or cardio afterwards etc...), I would say somewhere between Squadfathers numbers and 500 calories.

hahahaha, exactly, yet these clowns try to eat 4000-5000 calories per day to cover the brutal expenditure from 3 sets of benches, 3 sets of inclines and 3 sets of flyes.

I hope Troponin posts on this thread too. His insights are priceless!

Probably about the same as you would if you spent an hour walking. While your muscles might get tired...how much energy do you think it takes to move a weight, what is essentially a small distance, 10 times or so... answer... not very much!

benjamin pearson · « **Reply #7 on:** February 23, 2007, 04:30:33 PM »

depending on volume but not more than 300

What a good point! I would say that if you are getting you're heart rate up for about 45minutes, 1 minute between sets, you may burn 400 if you're lucky and jacked up on ephedrine and caffeine; however, the hormone stimulation that you get from weightlifing heavy is unsurpassable "I believe" because you're body won't release cortisone like marathon or runners do if they run for 45 minutes, but stimulate test and Gh...

Its not the drugs, its the muscle.

So in effect it is the drugs since the gains are artificial, but you have to have the muscle.

The more muscle you have, the more calories you can eat.

I do like how it say's in Jay's diet "rice" (cooked)

I think I'll eat it dry.

True but these idiots eat that much then take t-3 whats the fucking point

columbusdude82 · « **Reply #18 on:** February 23, 2007, 04:43:31 PM »

Yes, TA... if I were to attempt to start eating like this (or Trey's claimed diet on the other thread), right now as I am, I would probably just get fat and sick...

That would have a nominal effect at best.

It wouldn`t allow you to eat a considerable amount of calories.

troponin · « **Reply #20 on:** February 23, 2007, 04:44:36 PM »

Going by most stardard calculations for calories burned through different activities....(it would be very almost impossible to measure exactly, as you would have to take analysis for each specific individual during each specific movement, knowing their exact bodyweight at that moment....)...
A 275lb bodybuilder would burn about 1,000 calories during 1 hour and 15min of fairly intense weight training.

Now, I don't know if that takes into account rest periods, or if the weigh training would be assumed to be continuous, but that is what most calorie burning calculations would give you.

Explain please.... how do you figure?

columbusdude82 · « **Reply #22 on:** February 23, 2007, 04:45:55 PM »

The expert has spoken!

Is there a conversion chart or equation somewhere? Or do we just take direct proportions for other weights?

SS · « **Reply #23 on:** February 23, 2007, 04:46:07 PM »

Milos must burn about 10,000 calories per workout.

hahahahaha, i'm sorry Justin, no offense but 1000 calories burned is bullshit, come on now.
