Can someone who has used Zumba Core for Xbox help me out?

I don't use the calories on it but I am curious. I will play the exact same songs and I can get a better score and be more energetic but one day will say I burned 800 calories vs 150 or something in an hour. Both of those seem way off (like it would be more like 400-500 than 150 or 800). But Im trying to figure out if this is a common error or what? Or is there a way to input your weight in the game? I find it so weird that the measurements jump back and forth that badly.

    Yeah, I find their calorie expenditures to be baffling. I can do a full hour workout and it will say I burned fewer calories than a medium class. I just ignore it and use the MFP estimates for a Zumba class.

    I ended up using 500 per hr ish and it worked out for me.
