Ask HN:How many calories can non-athlete burn in one shot without been exhausted

Hi friends,

As a quite-inactive guy, I'm curious how many calories can you burn in one exercise session without getting hurt. By saying "getting hurt" I intend to include all minor injuries that jeopardize your next session or your work so that's why I put "exhausting too much" in the title.

I imagine for someone who is active and has good joints, he/she might be able to burn 400-500 calories every day BEFORE going to work. But is anything more than that, say, 800-1000 calories possible for you? I guess it's a completely different picture for athletes so this is targeted for laymen.
