How To Burn 1398 Calories In 3.5 Hours...
Saturday morning I woke up feeling "blah."
I hadn't been to yoga in a few days, and I hadn't been to the gym since Thursday morning. So I decided that I was going to kick my fitness routine up to 11 on Saturday.
I started off at the gym on the treadmill. I did the following routine:
Then, since it was 2pm, I walked to the Bikram yoga studio near South Station. This took me (at a leisurely pace) 25 minutes to do. And I burned another 158 calories.
The Bikram yoga class was the big winner for the calorie burn. I worked off another 725 calories in the 90 minute class.
And I would have burned off another 100 calories walking home from yoga, but I was in a hurry to get back and decided to take a cab instead.
Burned 1398 calories... Not bad for a few hours!
