Question 1

how to find out how many calories does one hour of cardio burn?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Depending on what activity you are doing, cadence and resistance.  (using arms and legs burns more).  Body wt age and general fitness also impact.

Question 2

could you tell me what happens to food in one's body when one burns off calories?

Accepted Answer

Conversion: Calories are another term for energy. Food is used either for building blocks to repair body breakdown or to provide a source of fuel (energy) for the body. What ever is not needed for either of those two purposes is disposed of as waste.

Question 3

any suggestions on which one burns more calories: zumba or kickboxing?

Accepted Answer

Funner one.: The one you enjoy the most is the one you will continue doing as part of your lifestyle which will end up burning the most calories in the long run.  Calorie burn is not a sprint, it's a marathon, a lifestyle decision.  So go for the one you are willing to do for a longer period of time and the one you enjoy the most.
