What is Your Target Number of Calories Burned During Cardio?

When I started doing cardio again this year I began with a simple 400 calories burned target….. Now that I can row my ass off for 90 mins and/or run for miles I am up to never burning less than 800 a day….. But often times it ends up being over 1000.

How about y’all? What’s your minimum you accept?
 
I never really tracked the cals TBH. I never put much faith in the estimates the machines were giving me and I never used any of the newer devices that track such metrics. I was always a time tracker vs calories. Now I am doing time/distance. I also don't track cals directly but I do eat the same each day and weight everything so I can add/reduce accurately when needed.

Back in the day 10cals/min was a target for me.
 
I haven't done cardio in a month or two now but LISS target was typically 300 cals on the dot when cutting.
That would take between 20-40 minutes depending on if I pushed some intervals in but typically it was a half hour of incline walking while studying spanish on my phone tbh
