The way to track calories with weight training is using a HRM(heart rate monitor).
You will burn more calories lifting heavier, not lighter. Example, 50 reps x 5 sets. Lets assume 1lbs lifting weight(just for example)
1*50*5 = 250 total weight lifting
Now imagine if you do 100lbs for 5 sets and 5 reps
100 *5*5 = 2500 total weight lifted.
What takes more time, 50 reps or 5 sets, or 5 reps for 5 sets? You're doing more work in a shorter period of time. It's like walking 1 mile or sprinting 1 mile, what burns more?
HRM is not accurate for tracking weight lifting calories.
And you burn more sprinting a mile than you do walking a mile.0 -
