Activities that Burn Calories

Do you ever wonder which activities burn the most calories?  Well, I most certainly do!  I am always looking for different ways to get my cardio in for the day whether it be sports related or using an elliptical.

The one thing that bores me about doing cardio machines is that you are stationary for the majority of the time, which tends to get boring fast.  I already have difficulty staying on a bike, or stair master for more than 15 minutes at a time.  Here are just a few activities that may spark your interest, and may actually burn more than the traditional machines.  

Racquetball



One Hour of Activity

155 LBS = 492 calories
190 LBS= 603 calories


Squash



One Hour of Activity

155 LBS= 834 calories
190 LBS= 979 calories


Kickboxing



One Hour of Activity

155 LBS= 703 calories
190 LBS= 862 calories
