I think it will very much depend on the individual body.

If you take that the average man needs 2500 calories per day, then that equates to just over 100 per hour.
Sitting still burns off 10 per hour (ish) and I would say the majority of people probably spend half the day sitting still (or sleeping) so the body must be fairly efficient to be using up the rest of those calories?
