    Calories per hour is a great site. Today I did my Tae bo work out. High impact for 16 mins and my Heart rate monitor said I had burned 172 cals. I weigh 200lbs... I dunno if it would be the same for you... But that's what it was for me! hahaha

    Those are just estimates. To make sure you get an exact number, invest in a HRM (heartrate monitor)

    I have yet to use mine during a Tae Bo session.

    Lots of people have found good ones on amazon.com
    You can check if walmart has some.
    Buy one that has a calorie counter.

    i compared other calorie sites.. and they were in the 190 range. so i feel like i did the correct thing and cut the calories i was told by the firs site.. in half..
