Walking 4KM on Treadmill 3% Incline Burns 470 Calories

I have been walking 1 hour or 4km on a motorized treadmill at 3% incline and I am burning 470 calories per session. I am doing 2 sessions of 1 hour each, totalling 8km a day or 940 calories.

Walking on a treadmill is not hard work but I do sweat a lot! I need 2 towels a day. Not to mention 2 stress free showers after each workout session. After a great shower I feel amazing!

Not everyone will burn 470 calories a session, this number varies from your current weight, height and age.  Go to the Health Surgeon Calories Burned Calculator and find out how many calories you specifically will burn doing over 100 different activities.

I just wanted to share my experience in treadmills. And if you are curious to know which treadmill make I am using, read my earlier blogpost titled – Confidence Gtr Power Pro Motorised Treadmill Review.

There is no secret for weight loss all you need is dedication and be persistent. If you are able to do 2 sessions of 1 hour each for 6 days a week, you will lose 38kg in a year, which means 38kg less from your body fat! Below is the maths:

7700 calories burnt = 1kg

470 calories x 2 sessions = 940 calories burnt a day

940 calories x 6 days = 5640 calories burnt a week

5640 calories x 52 weeks = 293280 calories burnt a year

293280 calories / 7700 calories = 38 kg reduction in 1 year

As you can see by simply doing cardio exercise 2 hours a day at 4km speed and 3% incline you can lose 38kg a year! Or over 3kg a month.
