495.32 calories during 30 minutes of Circuit Training

You burn 495.32 calories during 30 minutes of Circuit Training.- That's what a calorie calculator says. If this is true that's so great- But I was thinking more around 200 calories...

Can this calculation be right...?

It can vary pretty strongly depending on the person's size (height and weight), current fitness level, and how often you perform that activity. The most accurate way to track is to wear a heart rate monitor, and even those can be slightly off.

I would recommend looking at different calculators and taking an average of them while keeping the factors above in mind.

That depends on a whole host of factors from how much you weigh to how intensely you work out. Not knowing all the specifics I can't comment beyond saying the number is not impossible for many people.

I feel like the calorie calculators always go WAY over. If I listened to some of them I would be getting an extra 700 calories...

You latter guess is probably more accurate. I am a fit man and I couldn't even probably burn that much during a hour of circuit training. Maybe HIIT but circuit training, doubtfully.
