Because StreetStriding is low impact and uses nearly all muscles, it is an excellent cardio-vascular and aerobic exercise that burns lots of calories and can be repeated on a daily basis. Studies have shown that calorie burn rate while StreetStriding is 50% higher than bicycling and 15% higher than riding a stationary elliptical cross trainer. Actual calorie burn rate depends on two things: body weight and velocity. A 200 lb person striding about 12-14 mph will burn approximately 1000 calories per hour.
