Exercise/Calorie question
Besides aerobics, what one exercise burns the most calories in LEAST amount
of time? Preferably a floor exercise... or does walking (treadmill) burn more than any floor exercise does? I'm pretty overweight and cannot do aerobics so this is why I ruled that out. I have very limited time to exercise, so I"m looking for the best for fastest burn. Thanks for any answers. |

Exercise/Calorie question
I have time for about 30-40 minutes of exercise per day whether walking at
lunch or on my treadmill at night. I work 10+ hour days, then I have committee meetings after work and travel and business dinners. I just do not have time on a regular basis for much exercise in quantity as you suggest. I surely have no time for 1-1.5 hours of walking, there is just no way. That is why I asked what I could accomplish a 30-40 min timespan that would be most beneficial to burn calories. |

Also, having said that... I am the one who recently asked about Curves and if it was beneficial. I was interested in it because Curves is 30 minutes and I believe only 3 times per week. I haven't seriously looked into that, I do have a stationary bike, glider and treadmill at home and a regimen of using those three machines for 30-40 min a day just isn't showing me any weight loss and I only have an average of 1200 calories a day except for a weekly business meeting when I still try to watch but I probably do go 2000 that one day. |

Exercise/Calorie question
LOL!!!!!!
Yea JayJay, ya damned TROLL - Don't you know anything about making an effort to exercise? LOL Ahhhh.. wunnerful... this was the laugh I needed after a monster/emotional day.. Thanks Cammie, no disrespect meant.. but JayJay is not a troll. In fact she is a well respected poster here to asd and she is likely one of the most adamant folks who post here about getting off your duff and taking TIME to improve yourself through exercising. You'd do well to take some advice. Susan 260/219/160 --- 2w 1days 16:42hours of being smoke-free, 635 cigs not smoked, $117.48 saved, 2d 4:55hours of my life saved "Cammie" wrote in message ...

Exercise/Calorie question
my god I ask for some simple advise and I get people who do not know me,
critisizing me. I am a New York lawyer with a large lawfirm and you obviously have no idea what 10 and sometimes 14 hour days are like and the money is very damn good or I wouldn't be doing it. Thanks for the support in telling me that even though I am trying hard to do 30-40 minutes every single day to exercise, will just assure me to stay fast. Thanks a lot for the vote of confidence people. And I keep a weekly schedule of every single thing that goes into my mouth, that is how I know I do 1200 on average with 2000 occasionally... you people talk to me like I'm stupid and beneath you. Sorry I asked. |

And also to "Ignoramus7651" I dont watch TV, I dont have time to and dont tell me to get a new job, I probably make more in a few months than you make in a year. So much for a little simple advise, I'm sorry I bothered here. |

Exercise/Calorie question
It seems to me what we have here are some people who have lost some weight
who either 1) have egos about it or 2) think they are the authority on everything. I thought I was asking for some simple laid back advise at possibly a friendly NG but I got criticized and judged and no help what so ever. |

Exercise/Calorie question
Cammie... I highly recommend Curves. It is low impact and geared toward
women that have less then perfect bodies. The workout is just 30 minutes and you obtain benefit from going 3x a week... I go there and I love it. I lost 13 total inches my first month.... -- Email me at: perpleglow(AT)comcast(DOT)net "Cammie" wrote in message ...
