And before I get yelled at for having such a liberal definition of solute (which I admit, is a bit foolish!), knowing this number is important when your actual solute (not water) changes the volume of the solution and especially in a nonlinear fashion. 1  permalink. 2  embed. 3  save. give gold.
Better Than the Elevator. The website HealthStatus notes a person who weighs 160 pounds burns about nine calories during a minute of walking up a set of stairs. During the same activity, a 210-pound person burns about 12 calories. If climbing a flight of stairs takes you about 30 seconds, expect to burn half the above calories. While this calorie burn might seem low, standing in the elevator for a minute burns about one and two calories, respectively, for the two people.
Walking Program Averages. According to Harvard Health Publications, a 125-pound person can expect to burn about 120 calories by walking for 30 minutes at a relatively slow 3.5 mile-per-hour pace. A 185-pound person can expect to burn roughly 178 calories walking for the same amount of time at the same pace. Sansone's workouts also include moves such as side-stepping, high-knees walking and kicking moves, which add more intensity and result in more calories burned.
