Finally, a way for couch potato/armchair warriors to get a workout... or at least it would seem that way!
Powergrid Fitness offers the new Kilowatt controller, which requires you to push on a "resistance stick" which apparently burns more than 350 calories an hour, according to their July 3rd press release... but is calories or Calories? There is a diffence!
350 calories an hour translates to about 1,400 joules (which ain't much) and 350 Calories is 1,400 kilojoules (which is enough to burn off a light meal, or a couple of granola bars). I try to burn off a minimum of 2,000 kilojoules in a one-hour aerobic session, so you get an idea of the amount of effort, IF you're burning Calories and not calories.
Anyway, it's an interesting development.
