Exercise input question

SO I do a lot of classes at my gym, like Body Pump, Max Cardio/Core/ , plyo/cardio blast and P90x. Just curious how to input these. I have been logging it as intense aerobics and or circuit training but I am not sure if that calorie count is accurate. Any suggestions? Thanks!

You should wear a Heart Rate Monitor to accurately monitor your burn. After that you can create your own exercises. When you go to log Cardio type in "Body Pump" and it will come up with zero search results. Under that it will say "create your own exercise" and you can add 60min with 300 cal burn.
If you don't have a HRM you could input these as aerobics...but your calorie burn will only be an estimate and may throw off your numbers hindering your goals.0
