Does anyone know how many calories are burned doing the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred? Level 1, 2, and 3?

    It's hard to know the exact amount of calories burned unless you have a heart rate monitor. Log it as circuit training and it will give you a general idea of how many calories you burn.

    I've noticed that with almost all my workouts MFP overestimates calories burned, that's just my experience though.

    I was doing some research and if you have a basic heart rate monitor, this formula is supposed to calculate your calories burned. It's a different equation for females but that information can be found at the link below. Hope this helps.

    Compute the calories burned if you're male. You can accomplish this with the following equation: calories burned = (0.2017 x age in years + 0.09036 x weight in pounds + 0.6309 x average heart rate - 55.0969) x elapsed time / 4.184.
