lucky enough to live near a large body of water, outdoor rowing is a fun way of exploring nature and the outdoors while burning some calories. For those who don&#8217;t particularly want to go outside, indoor rowing is a great alternative to other cardio workouts such as running on a treadmill.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But how many calories does this particular workout burn?

So simply moving your body and doing a strenuous activity equates to more calories burned.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Body_composition_ie_muscle_mass\"><\/span><b>Body composition (i.e. muscle mass)\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are two reasons for this:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To sustain muscle mass, your body must burn more energy &#8211; even when at rest &#8211; than it has to sustain any stored fat.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Research has shown that for every pound of muscle you have, your body must burn 4 to 7 more calories in order to sustain it. At the same time, the body only needs to burn an extra 2 to 3 calories to sustain one pound of fat (<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.unm.edu\/~lkravitz\/Article%20folder\/metabolismcontroversy.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Muscle repair requires energy which increases calorie utilization &#8211; the reason why weight training is said to burn calories for longer periods than cardio workouts is because the process of repairing muscle tissue also burns calories.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you work out, muscle tissue breaks down and this same tissue repairs (becoming stronger and bigger) through rest. This process requires the body to utilize energy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Age\"><\/span><b>Age\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The older we get, the more muscle mass we lose along the way. This means that in comparison to younger people, older people burn fewer calories at rest and when working out.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sex\"><\/span><b>Sex\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a general rule, women have more fat stored in their bodies and men have more muscle. This explains why men tend to lose weight faster than women and why they tend to put on muscle mass more quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Thermogenesismetabolism\"><\/span><b>Thermogenesis\/metabolism\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The faster your metabolism, the faster you burn any calories ingested. If you already have a fast metabolism, working out will only help it become faster.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With all these factors to consider, we can safely say that it is difficult to determine the amount of rowing calories burned per hour or in just 20 minutes by any individual.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lean and toned up body isn\u2019t just a far-fetched fantasy. <a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2196&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=rowing_calories_burned\">Check out the BetterMe app<\/a> and watch it propel your weight loss journey into high gear!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Long_Does_It_Take_To_Burn_1000_Calories_When_Rowing\"><\/span><b>How Long Does It Take To Burn 1,000 Calories When Rowing?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As mentioned above, determining the calories burned per individual per exercise is difficult as there are too many factors that affect how much energy your body burns per day.

Make sure to maintain a calorie deficit if weight loss is your goal. General recommendations suggest cutting approximately 500 calories from your typical diet. However, you should make sure you still consume enough for your basic physiological needs.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Muscle gain &#8211; if you are training consistently, including\u00a0 an adequate diet, and getting enough sleep (7 to 9 hours a night), then your weight may be due to muscle gains.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember that muscle occupies less space in the body than fat. This is why lean people tend to weigh more than people often think. If this is you, step off the scale and use other methods to track your weight loss.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take bi-weekly selfies or full-length pictures and use these to track your progress. How clothing fits is also another great and reliable way of tracking weight loss progress.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_rowing_make_you_lean_or_bulky\"><\/span><b>Does rowing make you lean or bulky?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similar to other cardio workouts, rowing is better suited for a lean physique than a bulky one. However, this doesn\u2019t mean that it can\u2019t be part of a workout plan for skinny people. Skinny people also need to work on their stamina and heart health and rowing can help with this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rather than ignoring cardio workouts in their bulking-up journey, they should aim to do more weight training and less cardio. This will provide a good balance in their health and exercise plans.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_quickly_will_I_see_results_from_rowing\"><\/span><b>How quickly will I see results from rowing?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regardless of the type of workout plan, weight loss results can typically take anything from 4 to 6 weeks before they become noticeable. However, results such as increased stamina and endurance become noticeable much sooner.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_back_workout_calisthenics_help_with_rowing\"><\/span><b>Can back workout calisthenics help with rowing?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/back-workouts-calisthenics\/\">back workouts calisthenics<\/a> can. Remember that rowing uses a lot of upper-body muscles, including those in the upper back. Using back calisthenics to increase the strength in this part of the body can definitely help improve your rowing performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Bottom_Line\"><\/span><b>The Bottom Line<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While rowing calories burned are based on a variety of factors such as workout intensity, body composition, and weight, it cannot be denied that this workout is excellent for weight loss.
