[quote=Anonymous]So this is just an observation that really doesn't make much sense but I thought I'd share.  This is from my Fitbit.

On Tuesday, I did a 20 minute Tabata workout where it's 20 seconds on, 10 seconds off for 8 rounds, then a one minute break.  Do this 4 times. I guess warm up and cool down added 6 minutes. The workout consisted on burpees, high knees, jump squats, scissor jumps, push up, mountain climbers, skater jumps, and a few others.) According to my Fitbit, this 26 minute workout burned 181 calories (avg bpm was 100).  After this work out, I went on the treadmill and did 30 second sprints followed but 30 seconds of slow walking.  I did 10 intervals for a total of 11 minutes.  According to my Fitbit, this 11 minute workout burned 151 calories (avg bpm 142).  Later that night, I went for a 17 minute walk that burned 186 calories (abg bpm 123).  Something must be up with my Fitbit; otherwise, walking burns more calories than the Tabata workout.  In addition, it looks like intervals on the treadmill burn a lot more calories than the tabata workout as well.[/quote]
