    I usually have been going for about 600-800 calories burned. I use the wii as well to burn calories (270 from thirty mins of just dance, and 230 cals from thirty mins of wii fit, and additional 100-200 with walking) but I'm aiming to increase my working out this week but this is what I've been doing this past week or two, went down about 6 lbs. lost 51 overall.

    Short answer I don't.
    I'm attempting the C25K and different videos. Right now my goals are just to complete those.
    I don't think I ever will chose to burn a certain amount of calories. It'll always be how hard I can push my body, not how much I can burn.

    I usually shoot for 400 minimum. The better the burn the Better! and I try to stick with things like kick-boxing where with my hrm on, I usually burn 700 calories in an hour. Depends on how much time i have to work out in a day
