Want an idea of how many calories you just burned?

I have a dance workout video and I wanted to know a ballpark of the calories burned (I do no have a HRM yet) so I googled it. In my search I found this link http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/2006-06-06-calorie-chart_x.htm?loc=interstitialskip Not sure how accurate but it gave me an idea anyway.

Thought it might help someone else too!

    Heh, gave me 3141 for my daily expenditure. That's including 12 hours sitting at a desk, working, for my 2 jobs.

    I think the actual is more like 2200-2400.

    I have never heard or seen your link, but I occassionally use caloriesperhour.com especially for my walking and running.
