Working out and calories

646 views

I’ve been working out for about 4 months now (HIIT on a spin bike and a bit of weightlifting ~20 mins.) three times a week. I’m seeing good improvement in health and physique despite having no idea what I’m doing.

My motivator was calories, but now when I work out I burn way less calories because my body is getting used to the stress, I think. What’s happening? Is my workout less useful than before? Can I not eat as much or is my body burning more fuel now?

Its not possible to do the same workout with the same intensity and conditions and burn significantly less calories. Because calories are related to energy expenditure. Perhaps some reasons u burned less calories is because you did it with much less intensity or you did less time, less weight, etc.
