It is pretty amazing, when you stop and look at the numbers, to see just how many calories can be burned. Four days a week I do double workouts of either run/circuit or bike/yoga. On those days I burn an average of 1000 to 1400 calories. My two swim days I burn approximately 500 calories (I must be slacking- ha). Last week a total 5,045 calories were burned!
This is certainly was not standard for me; however, neither was this workout schedule prior to my commitment to training. Here's what really gets me... for four months I didn't exercise and burned very minimal calories. How the heck I didn't double my size is beyond me. I wasn't eating as much as I am now, but I also wasn't eating as healthy.
So the moral of this story is- pay attention to what you feed your body and keep moving. You'll feel better, look better, and stay healthier.
