This is an interesting result.
The heavier you are, the more calories the workout burns!
In addition, the number of calories burned by the same workout increases more at a heavier weight.
For example, a person who is at 250 pounds burns more calories going from sedentary to intense or extreme than a person who is at 170 pounds and going to the same exact intensity!
So, at 170 pounds, a low activity workout would burn around 366 calories. An extreme workout would burn around 1648 calories. That’s a 1,282 calorie difference.
At 250 pounds, a low activity workout burns 467 calories, and an extreme workout would burn 2102 calories. A difference of 1635! Or about 353 extra calories.
Really interesting!
