Does anyone else take a bootcamp type of class? my class is 50 minutes, and I'm wondering how to enter it in my tracker more accurately. It's a combinations of routines like ex:
skipping 1 min,
pushups 1 min,
skipping,
plank,
skipping,
mountain climbers,
jacks,
planks
lunges
tricep dips
sprints
etc etc for 50 minutes...
How would you calculate this type of program?!

I'd get a HRM and do it that way. But according to LA Fitness for a 55 min class
"Boot Camp Conditioning Burn up to 550 calories

Age and weight will determine calories too. I wore a hrm for my class once and it was cardio intense i only burned 350 calories in about 40 min and a younger guy burnt over 500. We were about at same pace too.0
