While all exercise burns some calories, some sports or activities burn a lot more.
Let's look at the basic, daily calories burned by humans. Men, due to their generally larger size, burn more calories. A resting 70-pound man burns 15 calories per minute; a 115-pound woman burns 12.
Keep in mind that a pound of fat contains 3,700 calories. But as fat contains more water and blood vessels than does a pound of lean muscle mass, that pound actually comes in at 1.2 pounds.
The ability to burn calories decreases with age; thus we gain weight. A 20-year-old person can ingest 3,000 calories per day and maintain her weight. By age 50, however, she cannot ingest more than 2,000 calories.
Activities that are not big calorie burners are playing tennis, swimming, and horseback riding. Playing squash, racquet ball, or handball; cross-country (Nordic) skiing; or bicycling are good calorie burners, at the rate of about 650 calories per hour. Running at a moderate pace of 10 miles per hour burns a whopping 900 calories per hour.

If you get on a stepper a machine that resembles the act of climbing stairs is a good way of burning calories or a running machine that does hill climb ,thats a killer but if your mentally focused on your set task it will shift calories fast.
