How many calories does yoga burn
An hour of yoga burns about 220 kcal if you weigh around 70 kg.
That's about
These numbers are for an adult of about 70 kg. Weigh more and you burn more, weigh less and it's a little less.
A regular hour class is about 220 kcal, half an hour at home is 110 and an hour of power yoga is 295. The faster, sweatier flows burn more.
Yoga isn't really about the calories, and that's fine. You stretch, you breathe, you sleep better, and the number still goes back on your day.
Tips
- 1Do 20 minutes on the living room floor with a free video on a busy evening.
- 2Try a power or vinyasa class once a week if you want it to feel more like a workout.
- 3Book your class in advance, it's much harder to skip something you've paid for.
