    Under cardio in the app. Realize that even an hour of pilates will likely only burn 300 calories max since it's more anaerobic than aerobic exercise.

    If you're logging by typing in the MFP exercise database, the "Pilates" entry there is quite low intensity. That may be correct, I don't know. I suspect it's intended for normal mat-type Pilates, not necessarily reformer. I've never done reformer, so I don't know how if that's more intense (in calorie expenditure terms).

    Using the Pilates entry in the database wouldn't be a big overestimate, at best guess.
