Random question, actually, wasn't sure where to post this. I've been going to Hung Ga (Well, more like Ark Y Wong's 5 Animal 5 Family System) instead of Taiji for about 4 weeks now, twice a week.
I was wondering what a lot of standard practices in the art did for you calorie-wise. I am trying to lose weight and want to factor in caloric deficits for the days I go to class.
I know it'll differ day-to-day esp since I'm newer and can't go through a whole form set yet. A lot of what we're doing is tiger boxing right now, which I have fallen in LOVE with btw.
I am especially trying to factor in stance training (holding horse and 'scissor' stances or going through and holding each stance as you transition to another).
Any ideas? I Just don't know where to begin calculating it. My heart beat, sweat, and buzzing painful warmth in my legs/triceps/bicpes/traps n' lats kind of tell me I'm doing SOMETHING right at least.
