Calorie Estimate for Jillian Michaels DVDs?

Wondering if anyone knows a rough estimate for calorie burn doing a Jillian Michaels DVD (like 30 Day Shred or Ripped in 30). I know it can vary based on ones weight and how much effort they put in and such but just looking for a generally idea. And what do you enter it as under exercise? I don’t need to have super exact as I have a lot of weight to lose so have fairly broad margins but I like to have some idea. Thanks.

    Depending on the video, put it under calisthenics or aerobics - low impact or high impact. MFP will figure out the calories.

    I’ve been recording the 30 day shred as aerobics. Normal aerobics for level one and high impact for levels 2 and 3.

    I log it as circuit training, as it incorporates strength, cardio and active recovery aka abs..
