Does anyone know, from wearing a heart rate monitor, how many calories are burned in a Bar Method Barre class? Their website has a wide range of potential calories burned so I never know what to enter. Thanks!

    Bar is more strength than cardio so an HRM wouldn't give you an accurate calorie burn. Figure for an hour, it's not more than about 250-300 calories.

    Thanks! That is what I was thinking. Do you think it would be good to combine bar a few times a week with fast walking?
