A member asked:

How many calories could i burn if i played tennis for an hour?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tennis anyone?!: The average calories burned for an average male, weighing 190 pounds (86 kg) is 500 calories for one hour of tennis. The average burnt for an average female, weighing 163 pounds (74 kg) is 450 calories for one hour of tennis. But again, this is all dependent upon your weight, length of play, aggressiveness of play, etc...
