Does anyone have any thoughts on why circuit training on MFP yields a higher calorie burn than curves circuit training?

    MFP tends to overestimate calorie burn.

    have you been to curves? do you think that's a workout deserving of a great many calories?

    I've never been to curves. I do a three day split, wasn't sure how to log it, and noticed the difference between the two here.

    I did curves for about eight months and lost over 70 lb. It all depends on how hard you push yourself. I do heavy lifting right now and I think I burn more calories ( I am trying to put on some mass).
