Hello-

Many people want to know how much weight you lose running on a treadmill. Here, I’ll try and give you some help with this question.

According to Calorie-Counter.net, you can burn up to 785 calories in one hour on a treadmill:

How Many Calories Burned Using Treadmills

According to a study done by the Medical College of Wisconsin and the VA Medical Center in Milwaukee, the average number of calories burned during a 60-minute workout on a treadmill is 785 calories. By comparison, using a Stair Machine burned 690 calories; using a Rowing Machine burned 770 calories; using a Stationary Cycle burned 575 calories and a Cross-country Ski Machine burned 642 calories.

This is just an average though. The number of calories you burn and the amount of weight you can lose is based on a variety of factors. Those factors are: the intensity, duration, gender and your normal metabolism.

The more intense the workout, the more calories burned. If you have a treadmill with an incline, use it and you will burn more calories because you will have to work harder.

You will also burn more calories running instead of walking. Another tip is to keep your hands off the rails. Run like you would normally without holding onto the bars. Pump your arms, add some weights to give you more of a resistance workout as well.

So just as an example, if you burned about 700 calories in one hour and you work out 5 days a week, that would be 3500 calories burned which is equal to one pound. You could lose about a pound a week and lose 10 pounds in 10 weeks. Without pills, without surgery.

Of course, consult your doctor before starting any new workout regimen. )

Thanks and have a great day!
