Why is this!?!


Question: Ok so i do the treadmill for 1 hour EVERYDAY and when i do the treadmil for 30 minutes in the gym it says that I have burned 600 calories, but on my treadmill at home it says i burned 200 calories in 30 minutes, I think the gym ones are more accurate, is my treadmill broke, should i buy a new one?

It's maybe because you different speeds and limits. you're treadmill may be broken aswell. Gym tread mills are more accurate id say.

You're hott :-)

A few reasons:
Different speeds maybe.
Different incline maybe.
Does the track belt slip?

Does it measure by heartbeat or by weight? The measuring scales must be different.

uhhh how much do you weigh?
the gym one maaaaay be set to a weight much higher than yours, or vise versa. Also depends how much mileage you had done.

whoa girl. even when i have treadmill up on its highest incline the treadmill says at most 250 cals possibly 275 in a half hour. at home my treadmill has a small incline and i burn exactly 200 in a half hour. i get on the treadmill at the gym and stay on for an hour. at the end of that hour is when i burn exactly 625 cals. i am religious at the gym!

ur gym treadmill is messed up!

an hour a day !!!!! ****! that should burn like millions!!!!

The home treadmill is more accurate. I'm a 175 lbs male and at a 9 MPH interval with a 4 incline, I burn about 300 calories in 25 minutes on the treadmill at my gym. I am basically sprinting at high intensity. From your picture, you look substantially lighter than me, so I can't conceive of you burning 600 calories in 30 minutes.

Remember that if the treadmill doesn't ask for your age and weight, it will be less accurate.

Best of luck!
