Tae Bo; Zumba; Circuit Training.

I wanted to know what the accuracy of calories burned was for these three work outs. I tried to search for Tae Bo specifically but had some trouble finding anything related to my question.

Do reduce the amount of calories burned? Add to them?

~750 calories burned for 40 minutes of Tae Bo seems like a lot.

Thank you!

    I have no idea,I have never done tae bo or zumba,,but from the looks of them they seem to be a nice burn,if you have a HRM wear it and see what you come up with.

    Yea, I use a HRM for myself. I am inquiring for a friend who does not utilize one (yet).

    I am curious to see how others record these exercises.

    Thanks for replying I appreciate any and all feedback!

    It all depends on what you put into your work out. I could burn 200 calories doing zumba if I'm struggling to follow a complicated, not very good instructor, or 600 if I'm jumping and rocking out the entire 60 minutes.
