Brenau University's tremendous Professors inspired me as I earned my Masters Degree in the Department of Education. They motivated me to want to learn more. Con...gratulations to Brenau's present day Professors and Administrators for your numerous Awards and rapid growth as an Educational Leader in South East USA.
Calories Per Pushup. You burn between 1/2 and 1 calorie per pushup, depending on your weight and how vigorously you're exercising. This is consistent for time periods of 10 minutes or one minute.
The more vigorous you workout the more calories you'll burn. A 150-lb. person will burn about 48 calories by performing situps or pushups vigorously for only five minutes. If you only give a light or moderately intense effort, you will burn about 21 calories in the same amount of time. A bicep curl will help a 150-lb. person burn 18 calories when performed at a light or moderate intensity for five minutes. When performed more intensely, bicep curls burn 36 calories.
