How many calories can I burn in an hour of karting? Using an ECG-based heart rate monitor, I tracked my heart rate during an intense qualifying and race session in a rotax go-kart. Using the monitor's app, we got a shocking calorie burn total... but are these readings even accurate? This video aims to discuss that.

Check out your heart rate next time you go karting:

    What an eventful race, man. I can really appreciate you being mic'd up and narrating throughout the race, for it's realtime thoughts on the spur of the moment. The camera placement is right on point as well plus the infographic overlay showing your heart rate, etc. Racing is a workout, that is undeniable. ✌💪
  • I think with rental karting it’s certainly a case of second guessing what novices are going to do, I race similar karts in club 100 so I don’t get much but certainly rental is far worse and you kinda need to use them as chicanes😂
  • Thank you for the video. Now I know who took me out on turn one. I think the calorie burn is not far off considering that both my t-shirts was soaking after recovering back to P3 in that race.
  • @alphashot3910
    This is the first video of yours I've seen and I'm subscribing. Listening to your thoughts as you are in the race makes it so much clearer on better habits to try and have.
  • What a good video and great to see you looking into the numbers yourself. As someone who coached endurance athletes, 1438 calories an hour is world record-level calorie burning!
  • @emog7609
    I would love more of these karting videos with commentary really entertaining👍🏾
  • @P1Peru
    Great video mate! Enjoyed that a lot haha
  • @101deathcore
    pinlock for visors to combat foggage and that was a very good vid. very engaging with the heart rate thing, music, and commentary. :)
  • @ChadGeidel
    I'm surprised there aren't any blue flags. Even my local "casual" karting place has blue flags (not that most folks understand).

    I don't get why do you have such a high heart rate while racing, you look fit and you are young. I did the same monitoring as you, at the other Daytona track (MK) and I had 162 max with and 135 average bpm. Basically your average BPM is the same as my highest BPM, and that include the 40 min before and after the race, without that you averaged 180+ Bpm, which is insane! I was pretty fit when I did the test and I'm older, but I find the difference staggering
  • @MrPatpaty
    Love the karting vids! More of this please
  • @KartingTaiwan
    Very good video. I'm wondering how you managed to put/sync/superimpose the real-time heart rate display info onto your video? which app do you use to do this? Any suggestions would be really appreciated. Cheers
  • @ShadowRacing
    Great video! How about trying this in one of your F3 Races?
  • @RyanGoesKarting
