How many calories for Level 1 30DS?

MrsH06

I currently do not have a heart rate monitor and was wondering if someone could please tell me how many calories Level 1 of the 30 day shred burns. Thanks a bunch!

It's a tricky one as everyone burns calories differently. The amount burned is also significantly affected by the effort you put in as the shred offers two differing workouts.

I think I used to log mine as aerobics??

I would use these calories as a guide only however and try not to overestimate them.

How are you finding it?

I've got a heart rate monitor and I find it to be inaccurate when doing the shred,not sure if the contact on the chest strap isnt maintained when I lie down to do the ab section.

I too would love to know the answer.

Honestly, it's dependent on each person's level of fitness and effort.

When I'm doing P90X to the point of being ready to puke, I can burn between 700-1000 cals in an hour.

I find my HRM to be fairly accurate and have backed in up by checking pulse and doing the calculations.

You can google for the equation

I've heard to log it as circuit traning - I just got my HRM so I will find out tonight - mine is the watch not the chest strap so I will soon find out

You can log it as circuit training since that's the type of exercise it is. Then it will calculate for you based on your current weight and info.

I used aerobics. but when I got my heart rate monitor I found I was only burning 175 to 150..

I log it as circuit training. Since the MFP database has my profile on records, I "assume" that I get the right amount of calories burned.

I do modify the routine because I can't do the jumping and cardio as tought by JM, so you will get a higher amount of calories burned. Just remember that the less you weight the less amount of calories you will burn.
